So I'm planning on getting my third literary tattoo in January. I have three planned, but I simply cannot decide which one I want to get. Perhaps you all could tell me which one you like bestttt?
First, A Lord of the Rings idea. My dad got me into LOTR forever ago, and I fell in love. Hahah. But long story short, I want to get the quote: Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens
across my back. The reason behind this one is because my family and I have been through SO MUCH in the past two years. Like, people actually cry when I tell them our story. But throughout all of this, I have maintained my faith in God. It has been a hard road sometimes, and I've been upset with him, but in the end, I always come to him.
Second, a Twilight tattoo. Now, I know I'll probably get a lot of flack for this one, but I personally think they're amazing books, errors and all. I want to get the quote: Carlisle was right on top of my left foot. The reasoning behind this is once again religious, and if you want me to explain, I will. It's one of my favorite ideas, but it's kind of diluted. Anywho...
Third idea is from an EE Cummings poem. anyone lived in a pretty how town was the first Cummings poem I read, and I loved it so much. I re read it all the time, and each time I fall in love with it over and over. But my favorite line from this poem is:
down they forgot as up they grew
I love this line, because it shows that as we get older, we lose our innocence, and our sense of wonder. If you've read the poem, you know what this line means, and it's really hard to give a full explanation without launching into a full fledged poem analysis. haha.
So, thoughts? |
