What do you think of Tibetan script tattoos?

Question

I think that they're beautiful - http://www.chinesetools.eu/tibetan-tattoos/

I want the word "fire" in Tibetan script. It will be my second tattoo, and I want it in a very discreet location. It will symbolize my turning twenty-one and emergence into adulthood, as a reminder that I have the ambition and fiery drive to achieve my aspirations, and to never lose confidence.

Yay or nay?

Answer 1

Big time Yay! Tibetan script is beautiful, and although I'm usually against against script or quote tattoos, I'm intensely interested in the ancient languages. It truly is a beautiful script, and 'fire' is a great quote to have for a tattoo. Fire has always been symbolic of purification, and nothing beats purging your soul to make progress towards it. That's a good ideal. I really like it.

Answer 2

Yay, if it's so meaningful to you,



just be aware that most people will mistake it for a cheesey kanji,



or worse still given Tibets political situation, a cheesy Chineese character tattoo

Answer 3

NIIIIICEEEEE!
