    Have you thought of a word in a different language? Like Love in chinese or something?

    Rabbit, lots of people have tattoos. I have one on my lower back, I don't regret it. I thought long and hard about it before I went and got it done.

    My boyfriend got a bunch of tatts when he was my age.. he is 37, and I'm 21. He doesn't always like being asked about them, but he knows that its apart of him and he wouldn't change it.

    And they still look pretty good.

    Sorry, the chinese thing's been overdone. So is sanskrit.

    I have nothing against tattoos... however, loveishard, if you personally don't have anything you like, or is personally meaningful to you, I don't suggest it.

    It's like buying a car without actually liking something, you know? Don't go to the lot hoping someone'll sell something to you.

    We don't know what will be meaningful TO YOU.

    And don't PLEASE do something in another language unless you speak this language, or it's a language of your birthplace or somehow involved with your heritage...

    My best friend whose Irish just got a HUGE tattoo of her name French, not only can she pronounce it, but she feels stupid when people ask her about it because it doesn't make sense.

    Going along with what chihuahua said...

    ... to us asians, whenever we see caucasians with chinese tattoos... it baffles us.. . really. Really. Baffles us.

    Oh, and sometimes, when we ask, "what does that tattoo say?" and we're told the explanation, we laugh in secret because that's not what it really says.

    I don't know how into Shakespeare you are, but one of my favorite quotes is: Seek happy nights through happy days

    "Cowards die many times before their deaths,
    The valiant never taste of death but once."

    That's so true. My best friend happens to be Jamaican/Chinesse and when I went to get my tattoo in her language I ask her if it's what I wanted it to say and she said yes. Also, my boyfriend speaks 5 languages, so I ask him too, and he said yes. This was before I get the tattoo.

    To loveishard, I don't think you want something too long but a short phrase instead.
  • Jul 31, 2008, 07:27 PM
    loveishard
    Yea that's what I want is a short one like 3 or 4 words long.. lol I don't think it will look too attractive if I have a paragraph on my side

    What is the tattoo of that you got about a month ago, please? Would you want something that might be complimentary to the one that you already have?

    Thanks!

    My tattoo I already have is on my hip.. its butterfly and my gemini sign with a few tiny stars

    I actually really like this one:
    Even though it's a little long..
    And it tells you the meaning behind it too..

    "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart."
    -Helen Keller




    Beyond The Quote

    The greatest things in life are not material, they are rather what we feel and believe. The love we have for those among us is most important. Happiness, love and friendship are the most prized possessions
    To have. To experience the world with your heart is the
    True way to fulfill your life.

    Why a quote?
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:22 PM
    loveishard
    Just because I feel like the can say a lot more then a single word

    I tossed around the idea of the word FAITH , and thought that, that word alone means a lot..

    But I just want something unique

    But a symbol or picture can tell the longest story if you choose the right one!

    Not trying to disuade you from what you want, just offering other perspectives.

    You know flowers all have lots of symbolism and hidden meaning.

    My name is Cherish, and there is now an azalea plant named Cherish, so I was thinking about this... but it's really not that cute!

    LOL, maybe look into some flowers...
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:37 PM

    ... I really like the name Cherish.. . possible future daughter name?. :: ponders ::

    If you have a thing for phrases... have you seen megan fox's tats?. ::drools::
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:40 PM
    ChihuahuaMomma
    Thank you! I had a patient the other day that was amazed with my name and said that he was definitely going to name his first daughter Cherish, and he'd send me a picture. I was a little creeped out.

    And who is Megan Fox?

    Yea flowers are always nice.. but almost everyone has a flower tattooed on them you know..

    Mys sisters firls tattoo was a flower my other sister has a flower on her foot...
    My mom has one on her back and my sister in law just got a few on her foot as well

    And those are people from my family.. imagine all the people in the world that have them lol

    Not trying to be negative on your idea..

    I just like to try and be a little different then others..

    The tattoo I have now I drew myself and designed


    But I'm kind of leaning with the word FAITH

    I think that word alone says a lot.

    But when I get the tatto its not going to be just the word.. its going to have a desing to go along with it.
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:42 PM

    I saw a tattoo once that said faith and then it said something else upside down. It was how it was designed... I'm not sure what it was.

  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:46 PM

    I think its faith and hope

    They have a lot of words like that its actually really cool I was going to get one as my first tattoo
    But decided to get what I have now

    They have one.. my friend has it it say life and you turn his arm upside down and it says death

    Who's megan fox?

    ... WHO'S MEGAN FOX!. oh... oh chi... oh...

    Girl from transformers. She has multiple tattoos... one on her back (line from king lear) and one on her ribcage (some poem)... a name here, a flower there, etc.

    Faith. I always figured if I was going to get a tattoo... it'd be in latin.. . I know... it goes against my "other language" deal... but... it's different. It's a dead language, and I speak it... a bit.

    What do you think about sola fide? (means only faith... or... faith only)

    Maybe... veritas? (truth... but it's been overdone by the guys from boondock saints)
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:47 PM

    Why not?
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:48 PM

    Make sure to get something that means a lot to you.

    I have a friend that got a tattoo and she said she likes it now but she plans on getting it removed in 5 or 10 years. Which boggled my mind. If you know you won't like it in the future, why get it? She's kind of strange anyway. :P
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:48 PM
    loveishard
    "sola fide"
    I like that one
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:49 PM
    ChihuahuaMomma
    Oh OK, I know who that is now... LOL... sorry I don't watch much TV...
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:50 PM

    Eh. Kind of like getting parachute pants.. . sure, it seems like a good idea at the time... but... you wear it to your college graduation party... and everyone starts making you do MC Hammer dances.. and.. yeah.

    So anyway. You like sola fide? Me too. I... actually might use that.

    Parachute Pants are TIMELESS!
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:53 PM
    loveishard
    Is it sola fide? With the question mark or no

    Ahah maybe that's why I shouldn't get another language.. ut if I know what it means.. why not
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:55 PM
    ISneezeFunny
    Ah, no. no question mark. I was asking if you liked it.

    Sola fide

    Only faith
  • Aug 1, 2008, 01:57 PM
    loveishard
    Oooh OK I got a little confused

    But thanks for clearing that up I could only image if I ever asked you that question and actually went and got that tattooed ahahaha
    Id be asking only faith?

    Like as if faith isn't enough and id feel like a moron
