Get tiny tattoos

You are a confident and vivacious free spirit who refuses to back down and conform. And how do you demonstrate this? By conducting yourself like a confident and vivacious free spirit who refuses to back down and conform? Uh...no. You get tiny tattoos that symbolize what a confident and vivacious free spirit you are. 

Your body is not just a temple, but a Post It note as well because you need to remind yourself to conduct yourself (or at least pretend to conduct yourself) as this confident and vivacious free spirit. Be sure to tell people how every tattoo you get is super meaningful, even though how meaningful can they be if you just scroll through Pinterest and Tumblr for tattoo ideas? Get a Hindu symbol on your wrist that reminds you to never be complacent, even though you continue to stay in toxic relationships with men who are shady and unfaithful until they dump you. Get "Be present" tattooed on your collarbone, even though you have a vice grip on the past and you can never seem to let it go to the point where it's alienating people. And be sure to make it backwards so it'll remind you to be present when you're looking in the mirror even though it'll confuse everyone else. Why take up meditation or read "The Power of Now" or....you know...actually be present when you can permanently accessorize yourself with a tattoo that broadcasts how *present* you are to others?
