Enter For FreeSitting in a park in Phoenix, Arizona, a giant bird landed on the light pole next to me. Turns out it was an osprey; something I’d never seen. I looked up the meaning- guidance, clarity. I was at a crossroads in life. I had the number 27 tattooed alongside the bird because that was the year I left behind everything I knew & took a chance on me.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?This dude looks tough but he’s a softie. This guy is resilient and authentic. He is a testament to the power of healing, growing, and facing anything that comes his way.
What would you do with the $25,000?Oof. The responsible part of me says pay for grad school. The “you only live once part of me” says travel, make memories, see more of the world.
