Faith

So I got my first tattoo yesterday. I was terrified. I almost didn't go through with it. It wasn't the fact that it would be there forever, I love the reason behind my tattoo. I was extremely nervous about the pain. My tattoo is on the outside of my left foot. The foot is supposed to be one of the most painful spots. This is all I heard leading up to getting it. But after I got over the initial butterflies in my stomach the pain of the tattoo wasn't all that bad, or at least not as bad as I imagined. With the help of holding my mom's hand and watching my best friend Tiffany takes pictures it was over in no time.

My tattoo is the word faith in an infinity sign. I decided to get this not too long ago but I love my reasoning behind it. For me this means as long as I always have faith, I can accomplish anything. Part of the reason I got it on my foot is because I also liked the idea of a tattoo on the foot that says "I walk by faith" and wanted to combine the ideas. There's just something so liberating to me about knowing that as long as I believe in myself and I try my hardest I can accomplish anything. Working for what you want isn't always fun, but it truly is rewarding. These are the ideas I need to hold on to.

After this last semester, I need all the faith in myself I can get. I'll never lose that. Things will work out for me. I will  be successful. My tattoo will just always be a reminder to have faith in the hard times, because when you're at your lowest point, you can only go up.
