Learn MoreOn my forearm, I have a scale with a brain and heart on either side (representing balance in all things), combined with Odin’s spear (representing taking initiative in the face of adversity and fear), and a woman’s hand balancing all of the above.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?I think, therefore I am. Balance in all things in life. Never forget where you came from, but never be afraid to spread your wings and become whoever you want to be in this world.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would do two things: 1) use half to help my fiance start his own business to get out from under a company that does not fully appreciate him and his capabilities; 2) put the other half in savings for my step daughter and to have a baby of my own: I am 28 years old and have always felt I would be a great mother. However, I have been intelligent with my life and waiting until the right time, which I feel is coming very soon.
