Personally, I have yet to take the leap to get a real, permanent tattoo.
This lack of commitment is mainly based out of fear — I know, I know, "it doesn't really hurt that bad" — but also because I'm a very indecisive person and the idea of getting something inked on me forever is just a bit overwhelming.
But if I ever did take the leap and get a tatt, I'd probably get a quote.
As a writer, I obviously love words, but it's more than that. Quotes can serve as beautiful little reminders of the ways we want (and should) live our lives. They help us navigate through difficult times, encourage us to be grateful for what we have and to see the future as full of hope and possibility.
Whenever I'm in a situation that becomes complicated, I always turn to quotes to help me make sense of what I'm feeling.
While I've grown pass the stage of passive aggressively posting quotes to my Facebook or Myspace page and hoping my boyfriends sees it and feels like shit, quotes still play a big part of my life. My house and Pinterest board are covered with them to a point where my friends are asking if I have a problem. So it only makes sense that a quote would also cover my body.
But picking JUST one? Yeah, that's next to impossible for me.
However, if I did have to chose, I'd want to make sure it was a quote that stuck with me for a longtime. Nothing trendy or current, but something timeless and simple. We complicate everything enough as it as, so the best reminders are the ones with the fewest words.
So if you're thinking about getting a quote tattoo, maybe some of these adorable ideas will jumpstart your creative brain:
