This is my gye nyame tattoo (taken a day after I got it, that’s why it’s still messy). Gye nyame is a symbol from Ghana that represents the supremacy and omnipresence of God. My aunt was a missionary in Ghana for thirty years before I was born and for me, personally, this symbol is a representation of the year that I’ve had. 2011 and rough for me and I wouldn’t have gotten through the year without my faith. God has given me everything I have.
The tattoo was done by Nate at Golden Lotus in Oneonta, NY
