Day 4: Patience



These are my last additions. On the left is 'Patience' On the right 'Karma' Two things that I have come to believe in. "Patiently waiting with faith & confidence will bring brilliant advancement." There are things in life that are worth waiting for. What those things are changes from person to person. I have waited for a few things. But mostly I have waited for people. People who won't disappoint me. There are a few in my life, but not many. Those that haven't, I learn to trust completely. There aren't many, but that's ok. As far as Karma goes? Well, it happens.
These 4 make 16 tatts so far. I do have a few more that I want to get. There are 3 more I want to get on my left ankle to finish that out. Maybe one more on my neck. Then I might be done. Who knows though. I still have a lot of my life left.

Day 3: No Reason


For as long as I can remember the birds in the picture above have always fascinated me. They are known as Cormorant. They where used widely in Japan to fish for some 1300 years. Here is a page if you wanna know more http://www.phototravels.net/japan/ukai-cormorant-fishing.html Anyways, I digress. These birds just sit there on their branches with their wings outstretched, drying in the sun. For hours they would stand there. There's no reason behind this picture except to share it. That's all. Nothing profound to say.

Day 2: Hope


"Hope guides me. It is what gets me through the day and especially the night." It's a line from a movie. One I have seen a hundred times if once. But that word, "Hope" it should mean something more than it does. Everyday hope is all that some people have to hold on to. For me, it's an empty promise of what was once there. Disappointment is all that has been waiting. I look for the light at the end of the tunnel. I thought I saw it once, but it was disappointment. That is the constant in my life. It works for me. As for the picture. I took it a few days ago. It is one of my fav so far.

Day 1: The beginning

I started this blog because someone asked me to. She has been doing her blog for almost a year now & has posted some awesome pics. I will try to match the level of pics I have seen, but no promises. The first picture actually is one I took sometime ago, last Halloween actually. It is the picture that is behind my blog title. Anyone who knows me real well, knows that I have a strained relationship with God. This statue is kind of how I view that relationship. Just praying that things will work out as I believe that the will. I have fallen many many times, but I always seem to get back up. Brush myself off, & continue on. I am a determined individual. Have the tattoo to prove it. :o)

All of the pictures that you will see her I have taken at one point or another. I will try to post ones that I have taken recently. Welcome to my world, try not to move anything.
