Significant meaning

So I'm going off a limb here from previous stories I have blogged about. Please do not mind a couple swear words here and there.  And  at the end,  don't ask who the person is because I've already dealt with them,  but I just wanted to clear something up.
      Yesterday,  I was writing on the sign out board to leave for my internship.  When next thing I know,  there were two people talking about the thing I had on my left ring finger.  For those of you who don't know,  I have a tattoo that is the military ribbon. It's just like the cancer ribbon but the color that stands for military is yellow. And just so people will stop telling me how bad of an idea it was to get this tattoo on my ring finger,  I will tell you why I did it.
    As many of you may know by now,  and if you don't,  I don't know how, my father was injured over in afiganistan,  causes by driving over a road side bomb.  The only half that blew up was of course my dad's half.  That one bomb has impacted my life greatly because my dad never got to see me grow up from there on out.  Now don't think I'm not lucky I didn't get to spend time with him for the seven years I got to because I am.  Those seven years are 7 blessings I couldn't cherish more.  But anyway back to my reason. Most of the girls I know when they get older and get married,  their dad's will be able to give them away.  Me,  not so much,  and it just so happens my back up plan won't work either because my grandfather died.  I've been thinking about getting this tattoo for a long time now.  Putting this tattoos on this finger signifies to me that no matter who I get married to,  or how in love with them I am,  behind them,  or in this case underneath the ring shows my dad will always be my first love and he will forever have my heart now matter what.
     So there ya go,  people may not agree with what I did,  but in the end it doesn't matter,  and whoever I get married to and fall completely in love with will hear my story,  and not even blink an eye to why I did it.  For the people that support me,  or the decison I made,  thank you! I know it's just a tattoo,  but it's a tattoo that means more than gold to me!
