Tattoos nor piercings will cause you to go to hell.
That being said, it is so frustrating to go out in public and encounter people, young and old, who are all marked up and pierced everywhere, who appear to walk around in their own little world, never making eye contact or giving a civil “hello”.
Our culture is so rude, so individualistic… so many looking to express themselves. The key word here is SELF!
Maturity is not about what one *can* do but rather what one *should* do.
How should we be spending our time, our money, our bodies? How can you encourage your children to make wise choices even while they are still young?
We should be proving who we are by how we live out our lives. It’s about self control, work and serving others.
After spending a day at the local water park yesterday I am appalled at the nudity, tattoos, piercings and RUDENESS!
“Even a child is known by his doings,
whether his work be pure,
and whether it be right.”
Proverbs 20:11

Leslie from VA says:
I so agree, Kathy. We have actually avoided water parks in recent years for the same reasons you mentioned.
Valerie says:
I totally agree! What is so bad is that it’s not just the water park, I constantly have to explain to my son about the tattoos on the folks working the check out line a various stores.

I love to visit your blog and catch up on your family, God bless you for taking in your little ones.
I love this line:
Maturity is not about what one *can* do but rather what one *should* do.
Too many of us view maturity as a license to be selfish.
