Hence... The new tattoo. I'm up to ten. That's right, One-Zero.
I have a list of things that I'd like to get but I wanted this one to really mean something. Which is why its taken so long for me to get it. I've been working on making Me better for a while now and I wanted to celebrate that.
One of my all time favorite things is The Rose That Grew From Concrete by Tupac. It's short, sweet and reminds me of Me. In the midst of all the chaos in my life, I continued to grow, and I did it without a major support system.
Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it
learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.

So... Here it is. My constant reminder to always walk with my head high.
I so love you and am so freakin' proud of you!! <3 You inspire me all the time, and this is no exception. Keep being you and putting yourself first. Love you much, lady.
