Body piercing has been around for centuries. Body piercing is nothing new. However, the reasons for why people get pierced have evolved into something somewhat different these days. The history of body piercing comes from many different cultures. Different piercings have different heritages and backgrounds. Nose piercings were first discovered in the Middle East about 4,000 years ago.

Once upon a time, there was a man who thought he could change the whole world. He huffed and he puffed, as he tried to get other people, and their people, to do the right thing. Then one day he realized the world he wanted to change was not the world he needed to change. He realised the world was quite fine as it was, but that it was his 'seeing' of the world, his perception of the world, that was causing him so much anxiety, which he then projected onto others. So he stopped trying to fix the world 'out there', and he focused on his 'in here' perception of the world out there. And when he changed that perception, his inner world changed and paradoxically the outer world changed. And yes, you guessed, he lived happily ever after.
