My first tattoo! I got it on January 12th of this year. It’s (obviously) an anchor, dedicated to my best friend who joined the United States Navy. Before she signed up, we had one of our routine 4am conversations. Once I came to terms with the fact that she’d be leaving and I wouldn’t be able to spend every day with her, I got this. It was my way of accepting what was happening, and also letting her know that, no matter what happened or where life took us, she’d always be my best friend. Even though she’s countless miles away, I’m always carrying her with me.
