First up is Wilson, who has a lot of ink, most of which is tribal-style.
He decided to share, however, this deeply personal piece on his left bicep:
Wilson had this inked after his wife left him and took his kids. It was immensely painful and he found that this tattoo, a heart with a knife through it, helped him heal a lot.
In fact, he said, that six months after she left him, Wilson's wife called him back and made overtures toward reconciliation. He says he looked at his tattoo, a symbol of the pain he had endured, and told her no.
He is hazy about the place where he had this done, but believes it was at a shop in Atlantic City.
Thanks to Wilson for sharing his tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
