Phoenix Tattoo

I've always loved Phoenix birds and the story behind their mystical life. They burst into flames and then are reborn from the ashes. I went through a time in my life that I felt I had died, I was crushed emotionally. Once I got through it I realized I was like the Phoenix that rose from its own ashes. The other part of my tattoo is Latin (because Latin is such a beautiful language) that says "Always stay strong". It's a motto that I have always lived by. And still helps me get through tough situations.
