I am a young girl that is inspired by tattoos because for me, they are a commitment, a truth you can't run away or hide from. Something that you can look at every day to remind yourself that yes, this is real and you're not going anywhere.

My favorite tattoo is my back piece. "Through the wind and the rain she stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above, but her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved." My dreams are what inspires me and gets me out of the bed in the morning. My mother flew away from home to find where she belonged and found happiness and I have the other wing and hopefully, I can follow in her footsteps and find my home.
