What My Birthmark Looks Like

My birthmark is brown and about the size of a dime on the left side of my upper back and if you look at it at one angle it looks like a bunny and if you look at it at the other angle it looks like a turtle. It shocks everyone that has seen it because most people don't believe me until they see for themselves. I would really like to know what it means though.

How I Feel About My Birthmark

I love it! It makes me feel special and unique. I have never met anyone else with something like it. I love being unique. I don't know what it means but maybe my mom really liked bunnies and turtles when she was pregnant, Who knows. I don't really believe in superstition but u believe it was put there because God wanted to do something to make me even more unique than I already am.

Lessons Learned

  • I don't really pay attention to anyone's birthmarks but my own.

Rudy, you have your own "Tortoise and the Hare" fairytale on your body. I wish you had shared a photo, your description of it sounds very cool.
