I may not be where I want to be…But I think I’m where I need to be for now…And I’m okay with that

Since I started blogging on medium this month I admit I was feeling pretty down and worthless before.

But I once heard a saying that the most scariest person is the one with nothing to lose.

And yet it seems at those moments where our lives change direction.

In the days before my contract job ended last year I decided I wanted some direction and permanency in my life.

I opted for this tattoo.

My grandfather raised me and passed away in 2008. He was in the royal Australian navy and so that’s where my resilience comes from.

He always taught me to have my cry but then get back up.

My mother left me with him when I was nearly four years old and my dad died in 1980 when I was two years old so my grandfather was my world.
