What inspired your most recent tattoo?

At one point my depression was so bad I was going to commit suicide... But luckily I didn't succeed. A year later I had to deal with my husband of 31 years betrayal..I have never felt so low and less than enough in my life..So I began with a sunrise(because no matter what the sun always came up)over the ocean.. that made me want to continue my sleeve to underwater because it's so peaceful to watch fish and listening to the ocean

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

That I am strong and resilient.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Actually take a vacation to a tropical island and of course get more tattoos..lol
