My personal hero

My personal hero is my grandmother. She is one of the most important person in my life. Some years ago, she worked in a bakery and she used to smoke 2 packs of cigarettes a day. When I was young, she was operated. After the operation, she continued to smoke. She was standing on the edge of death, but she decided to stop for her sons and her granchildren. For me, she is an example of strenght and determination.👵🏽

Tattoos

Tattoos is an old pratice that dates back to 5000 years ago. The oldest testimony is "Otzi" an ice man who lived about 5300 years ago, with his back and knees tattooed. In Egypt, tattoo, seemed to be an exclusive female pratice. In the past, tattoos were made by the oldest woman of the comunity, with a sharp point set in a wooden handle. The word "tattoos" appears in 1769, when James Cook arrives to Thaiti. I like little tattoos and I think that each tattoos needs to have a meaning

When he returned home , he opened the door and saw the cradle on the floor, covered with blood. He looked down and saw Gelert's head and paws full of blood.
