Yet another tatoo question
I am thinking that after my brain surgery that I want to get a tattoo...some kind of profound meaning of life type of tatoo...I have no idea where to even begin to look for things like this.
Does anyone have any meaning of life type of ink that they could share with me?

Re: Yet another tatoo question
You could do a Chinese symbol for perserverence, life, health or something like that. You could get a quote on your wrist. I'm at a loss for ideas right now, but I think it's an awesome idea...kind of like a rebirth of Deb!

Re: Yet another tatoo question
great idea Deb! I think you should pick something that represents what you've accomplished/overcome.
DH has his favorite bible quote on his calf (Isaiah 40:31, not the full verse).
I am trying to have someone design mine for me, I'll tell you via FM if you want to know (I don't want anyone stealing my idea)

Re: Yet another tatoo question
A friend of mine is experiencing what she considers "new life" because of a major organ transplant that she recieved over a year ago ... she choses a butterfly as her symbol because it represents the new life for her.
What about a phoenix? I don't know if I'm spelling it correctly, but it's a red bird --- and I associate it with a second chance on life.

Re: Yet another tatoo question
I have an Ankh tattoo on my lower back.
Meaning of the Ankh:
The short and traditional meaning for the ankh symbol is "everlasting life". This symbol is a heiroglyph seen in countless ancient Egyptian carvings, usually held in hand by Gods and pharohs to show how they preside over life (in other words, are immortal)
Another meaning it has: An ancient egyptian symbol which represents life, rebirth, reicarnation and love.
This is when I just got it:
And healed
