"With brave wings, she flies."

Yesterday was a huge day.
 It was a release in one of the best, and most painful forms possible, and so needed. Since my father's death I've always been itching to get a memorial tattoo for him, but nothing ever felt right, until I was looking through some quotes, and then something finally clicked into a design. This quote has always stuck with me and just feels right for this time in my life. Transitioning into the working world (and yes I'm aware of the **risks** of getting a tattoo and what not and the likelihood of employment.. blah, blah, blah... spare me), and finding my fitness, finding my footing for my BPP and even this blog, being a mother, and a wife, and always trying to see the good in things. Along with continuing through life with this new found bravery, and knowing that if I set my mind to something it CAN be done. My goals in life can be achieved, because I am strong, I am brave, and I am determined! Those are three things I would hope that my father would be proud of me for. Every day I ask myself if he would be proud, and each day I become more confident in the fact that he is. Little signs everywhere confirm this for me, and so with brave wings, I will fly!

Keep in mind that while as beautiful as it is, it is the start of one cohesive piece that will eventually be a half sleeve. I am still working on design elements as I go along, and will be dedicating it to my guardian angels who have taught me if I don't jump, I'll never know if I can truly fly <3
