Learn MoreI'm a huge advocate for mental health, as it's something I've struggled with and tattoos help get me through. My most recent shows that even though sometimes things are bad and your mental health is at its worst, there's still the other side where it can be happy, that's still in there somewhere.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If it was talking to me, it would remind me how my ink has gotten me through a lot of tough times, moreso than reasonable. And that it's a reminder during tough times that I still make it through to the other side, one way or another.
What would you do with the $25,000?It would go on a down payment for a house for myself and my mom. The other person that help provide has since recently passed away, which means she cannot pay all her bills, and have money for groceries, etc. I'm a single female working a mediocre job that doesn't make a living wage. My mom is older, her 70s, and we are all we have for family for each other.
