anotheranonEschara, "A Scar is a Story".
Perhaps morbid to some, but I rather like scars - usually unwanted but all highly individual, signs that you've been living your life.
Most my scars are the usual childhood bumps and jabs - run into the sofa here, a chickenpox dent there. The one that's still barely visible on my chin has a good story behind it though - I got it when I sailed over my bike handlebars while racing my sister - I skidded on gravel and landed directly on my chin. It scared me more than it hurt, and while the stitches made it heal fairly cleanly I still have a bit of roughness there.
Any good stories?
