If you had to have a phrase as a tattoo ,what would it be and why?

[MrsGrindah]

Mine would be

“I’d trade all my tomorrows for one single yesterday “...a line from Me and Bobby McGee ..one of my parents favourite songs and they are no longer here.

Sometimes I feel like I'm falling
Falling fast and falling free
She said "My darling you're not falling,
Always looked like you were flying to me."

I would have the bolded (hopefully, if it didnt work, then the last line)
For me it means that you never know what other people are going through

Or ‘don’t let my MIL make everything about her’ so when I’m having one of those moments I can remind myself I have the power to tell her where to go 😊

Not that she listens.

'The past is yours, but the future is mine'

I have

Illegitimi non carborundum

Never let the bastards gring you down. Not an exact translation but I took it 😂

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live

I like 'Nevertheless she persisted'

'choose to gleam as you're facing the dark'

Not one? 😂 I actually came on the write the same thing....
Ha ha

You'd really end your life just for one more day with your parent?

Come live with me and be my love from the poem by Marlowe for my beloved husband.

Today it would be.."Fuck this shit"

Either;

"I'll hold you close in the back of my mind" - a Ryan Adams lyric

Or

"Don't worry, don't be afraid, ever: because this is just a ride" - Bill Hicks

Or

"So it goes" from Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut

To see a world in a grain of sand and a heav'n in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour.

William Blake

I love his poetry. There's something about his Auguries of Innocence that always makes me go misty-eyed...

I’ll face it will a grin, I’ll never give in, on with the show - Queen

I already have “from the fire to the limit to the wall for the chance to be with you I’d gladly risk it all” I’m memory of my passed daughter 💓

Mijnje No, of course I don’t mean it literally ( and I didn’t write the lyric!)

"so take my hand and home we'll go".

Or possibly "let your heart run child, like horses in the wild".

I have "born to blossom, bloom to perish" on my ribs.

Always loved "what comes around goes around" pink has it on her wrist.

I’ve got a fair few.. don’t write on yourself when you’re young kids.. or do you’re only here once.

“Perfectly Flawed” 10years into an eating disorder and trying to admit enough was enough.
“Every harlot was once a virgin” saw it as part of a massive speech on how we were all pure and we’ve all sinned and we shouldn’t be judged for it.

And a good few other more generic ones that I like

When I was younger and a bit of a 'one', I came THIS close to getting the word 'twat' tattooed on my arm in Wingdings. Because only a twat would get that tattooed in Wingdings.

Glad my friends talked me out of that one, TBQH.
