A roll of the dice

Dice Tattoo

Dice Tattoo: When I first joined the military. I had no piercings, no tattoos. I was super clean cut, my dad was a cop. I kind of went wild. I got an earring, and a tattoo in Florida. I picked the tattoo out from one of those books. The picture in the book had these weird palm leaves over the top, You can no longer see it, but the flames were there to give it a little attitude.

I had the numbers changed on the dice to the way they would be laying. The number 23 was the day of my first girlfriend’s birthday. 33 was the number people knew me by when I played basket ball. The 5 just happens to fall when you lay the dice this way.

I had them use eyes instead of ones. The eyes represent the angels that watch over us.

The dice are there because I was a big fan of dice when I first joined the Navy. They kind of represented the attitude of life where if you don’t take chances you will never win. You are going to lose sometimes your going to win sometimes, but  if you don’t take chances you will never know.

The flames(which did not show up in the picture) sometimes there is discomfort. Bad things that happen because of the choices you make. You have to pay the consequences for that. This does not mean you don’t take a chance.
