Nathan
Young Nathan - he naturally has a good build and then he works out on top of that - I should be so blessed (the most weight I lift is my self out of bed). His slight black eye is from his passion for boxing (where as I run if I think someone is going to hit me!)..

Were I to live a thousand years it still would not be enough!
Day 33 - Well What can I say. What would our lives be without love? I can only Imagine one word. Unbearable! If I were to live for a thousand years I would still not give up the desire to love. Heartbreak. Would you give up the ability to love and be loved to not suffer heartbreak. I can not imagine anyone could say yes. As painful as one heartbreak can be, one moment of love can erase that forever! In our journey through life it is the one thing that can heal us from any wound and catch us from any fall. It keeps us warm when we are cold and is our saviour when we are alone. Its drives us to the edge of insanity and we jump over that precipice without a moments hesitation. It gives us wings. I cherish the day when I again wear that warm wonderful coat of LOVE. “Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only ligh.

Ledt Arm 1st Session
Here is the result of my 1st session with Don at Art Freek Tattoo. His skills are amazing and I am very pleased. Notice the old tribal coverup? (damn grunge era lol) I opted for a somewhat traditional Japanese dragon and Don created from scratch this piece with orchids, water and fire. This is the 1st of many sessions as I am doing both arms and chest..

Protection and Courage Symbols
According to Japanese legend if a koi succeeded in climbing the falls at a point called Dragon Gate on the Yellow River it would be transformed into a dragon. Based on that legend, it became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement. More generally, the Japanese associate koi (also known as carp) with perserverance in adversity and strength of purpose. Because of its strength and determination to overcome obstacles, it stands for courage and the ability to attain high goals..
The underground world uses tattoos to show membership of gangs. These are called Criminal Tattoos.
