My tattoo embodies my life… Everything on this page means something that’s genuinely important to me. In the centre is an outline of Mufasa from The Lion King.

Justice means having someone adjudicated and found guilty for a crime they have committed. Laws are put in place for a reason and everyone should have to abide by them.
