Hello all you lovely people! I'm SO stoked to show you guys my latest tattoo!
I decided I'd write a blog for every tattoo that I get so you guys can not only see the work I've gotten done, But understand why I got it and what it means to me!
I got the following lyrics tattooed:
"You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper"

I also HIGHLY reccommend you watch the music video, which link is here:

2011 was the hardest year of my life. I consider it a miracle I made it out alive.
I was kicked out of my house and disowned by my family and then was in an extremely abusive relationship.

This song not only changed my life, but saved my life. This is what I listened to when I was sure I wasn't going to make it out alive. But I stand here today stronger than ever and whenever my mind wanders to that dark place, this song saves me time and time again. The cherry blossoms symbolize new beginnings

Thank you all for sharing in this journey with me! <3
