I have a few more, but they’re all different stories for different people in my life I loved deeply. And memories that were deeply cherished

Learn MoreI offered to be a canvas for someone who was wanting to pursue a career in tattooing and she showed me some pieces she had done. I picked one I liked and she did it for me. My other ones have better stories though.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?Depends on which pieces you ask about. My rib piece is because I love art and I want to be covered in it. I got the skeleton with flowers to symbolize growth after the war within ourselves. The simple angel on my wrist was for my baby sister that passed when I was 10. The koi fish on my wrist was for my uncle who got me into tattooing (he has one on him thats bigger and way more detailed) I used to see him tattooing people all the time. And some of them were for no reason other than fun.
What would you do with the $25,000?First I would pay off my medical bills and get things I’ve been needing for myself. I’d also fix my van up and the rest would be going into my savings so I could be responsible with how I spend it. If I actually managed to somehow win something this big for myself, then I’ll take it as a sign that it is worth it to step out of my comfort zone more.
