What words shall I get tattoed?

June 8, 2010 7:11pm CST
I would like to get a tattoo on my wrist. I am thinking of getting words tattoed around. My friend has "we are the stuff that dreams are made of" around her wrist. I love this! I am an actress so anything from a play/film or whatever would be great. Any suggestions welcome!

I suggest to wait. I know it's frustrating, and getting tattoos can be mind-consuming, fun, and addictive, but if you haven't got any ideas as to words that you'd like tattooed on you, wait it out. Or maybe you could rewatch some of your favourite movies and plays to find inspiration. Life is short and getting creative tattoos is always fun, but I highly recommend at least doing your own research and finding what speaks to you and not be concerned of what others think, because getting a tattoo of something someone else suggested or of something straight out of a song or movie can lead to regretting it. I've made a rash decision like that before and now have a tattoo that I regret getting, and it's on a visible part of my body (my neck). I am looking to get it covered up, but it's difficult to come up with something that will both make me proud to sport on my body, and cover up that black ink that I am so ashamed of. I could get it removed with lasers, but that is supposed to be umpteen times worse than the pain of getting a tattoo, and it costs a lot of money, which is something I don't have in abundance at the moment. So my advice to you is to look into your own favourite things and interests for inspiration, but to make sure that you really want it to be on your body for the rest of your life, and that you're certain you want it before it's too late. Hopefully I sound more helpful than dismissive, lol.

I have a tattoo on my wrist, actually I have several haha. One one wrist I have a butterfly on the top and it goes around my wrist with a tribal. Also I have the Latin Sentence that says Nascentes Morimur, which means: From the moment we are born, we begin to die.It is just something that when I look at it, it reminds me that life is so short that we must make the most of it.
