Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My Jesus tattoo was inspired by the path God has set out for me. One I failed to stay on so many times, yet God never left me to walk alone. I have stumbled and failed in life but I've always had the determination to keep walking, with the weight of the world on my shoulders I seen no other choice but to push forward. I could of never had that strength alone without the Lords guidance.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

My ink would tell you about the heart ache I had as a young adult loosing the one person I felt always had my back, my grandfather. When I sat and got my first tattoo, remembering him and how I felt like I couldn't push through in life alone. Other tattoos would tell about my kids and the love I have for them. Mostly, my art tells about who I am, and to always remember where I came from & how far I'm going.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With $25,000 I would put a down payment on a home for my kids and I. So I can show them that it is possible! Regardless one day they'll see all the hard work and long hours will pay off. If I can do it, they can do it a million times over.
