Such a good point about the cocreation and collaboration. Love seeing it all come together though! The end result is phenomenonal. What a beautiful piece of art 🤩

Thanks Cassie. It is interesting having not thought about it for about 10 years since I had it done and now having it all bubble up.

I enjoyed listening to to this, this morning. I love the idea of packing pain into suitcases and sending it away. I have only had a small tattoo and got through it knowing it would be over soon 😂

Frankie, thank you kindly for your words, you are the first person who has mentioned listening! It is really nice to know someone has. Probably obviously I haven't got any special recording equipment, just me on the laptop speakers, but we have to start somewhere eh! What is your tattoo of, if I may ask?

It is just a small star at the bottom of my back (I've had it for years) , your post has got me thinking about adding to it in the future though!

I think it's the necessary surrender to a stranger's talent, and knowing that the final version won't look like what I have in my head, that has held me back thus far. A life lesson right there. This was so interesting to read, thank you.
