Enter For FreeMy latest tattoo is the serenity prayer. Through god I have a second chance at life. My drinking led me to liver failure at 40. I had to tell my 12 and 8 year olds that I was going to die in the hospital this time. When I saw the crushing look in their eyes I knew that I could never do that to them again. I said the serenity prayer and haven’t looked back since.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?My ink reflects times of my life. There are dark, happy, sad and everything in between. I’m not great at writing and expressing myself so this is hard but I want my ink to show my growth, strength, gratitude and excitement for life.
What would you do with the $25,000?With $25,000 I would love to do a full sleeve half would be cover up. Or artists choice of placement to make the piece work and fit properly. I’m a big outdoors person. I hiked a ton to get sober and I foster dogs. They need the same second chance I got. I would love a nature/mountain scene with a waterfall and my dogs( an interpretation of them not anything crazy). And a silhouette of my fiancé and i hiking holding the dogs. It’s a symbol of everything I had always want
