Learn MoreMy latest tattoo was inspired by the desire to turn a drug hazed pitiful rendering into a work of recovery art.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?My ink would say "With recovery I rose from the rubble that living the life created. Look at me living my best life beyond tragedy, addiction, incarceration, and despair. Not only did I survive, NOW I THRIVE! WE DO RECOVER!
What would you do with the $25,000?I would apply some of these funds toward my educational pursuit of a degree in social work, and some to purchasing a place to call home. I long to have some good dirt to tend, shade trees to meditate under, and a dwelling that I can truly call my own. An additional portion of the funds would go to the transitional program that gave me a fresh start and a chance at a life worth living.
