So Friday I saw a therapist for the 1st time ever. she was nice. the hour went by fast!

She gave me an assignment as part of my recovery/self-healing process... DO SOMETHING FOR MYSELF. Her suggestions were, massage, pedicure, go to a movie.... well... I waffled over the the idea, and I had a time constraint, had to do it before I saw her again TUESDAY MORNING.

Well I had already been considering a tattoo of memorial, but not a typical angel with dates and crap... so I did some research. I love dragonflies, they have a certain mysticness (is that a word?) to them. I researched what they signify to many cultures, starting with Chinese because I thought I had seen them in a lot of Asian art design before. Well they have a nice meaning in Chinese and even in Japanese, but the right one was the Native Americans belief...verbatim of Wiki-Answers: To some Native Americans they are the souls of the dead. As sad as this may seem, it it appropriate and means a lot to me, especially in my 1/32 bloodline of Native American.
