the Lion Rampant is the only tattoo I have
I’ve been thinking of my Mom a lot over the last few days. I’m not sure why, she passed away almost 15 years ago now. She always wanted to return home to Scotland for one last time, but never could. We were quite poor and that dream never came to pass. So this year I do plan on going to Greenoch, her hometown near Glascow and visit for her. As you grow older, you think more about the dreams that may not have come true for you, and what you can accomplish in your life. I’m the longest living male in my direct family’s history, so perhaps I think of this to often. but you must still have dreams, and leave something behind. And sometimes, you have the chance to finish the dreams of those who never had the chance. So, Mom, this is for you and Scotland the Brave:
Thank you for memories of Greenock…and for Scotland the Brave…my mum’s favorite song.
See you at Burns Night at the Edinburgh Castle.

I’m looking forward to it!
