    Nice tat...but I have to ask about the irony of getting a symbol that means "life" or "eternal life" and putting the words "dream of death" inside it....?

    what is death but "eternal". the cross is to the church is to god is to life after death. do not most people spend some time thinking about life after death? a cross may represent life to some people but to me it also represents death.
    did that make any sense ? it has a couple meanings for me so its hard to explain.

    why not ? we dream of other things money,cars,sex,getting married etc. we are all going to die, why do most people shun it or hide from it?

    I get that...but it isnt a cross...its an ankh, which is as I'm sure you know, the Egyptian symbol for life.

    Either way..its pretty!

    it's good artwork, but it's really ugly. It looks like crumbled dirt. The fine lettering will blur with time if you don't take really good care of it. I'm opposed to the idea of getting an ankh, or other things.. like an om symbol on your body though.

    I'm confused by the symbolism myself but hey, if you're happy with it it's all good.

    Your tattoo is awesome. Nicely done, not just the tattoo itself, but representation. It is significant in several ways and not everyone gets it That's the best part. It's meaning can be understood /accepted by a few, and that's what I would want. Those who like it to not only appreciate the artwork but have an understanding for the individual. These are THE best tattoos. Why would someone want something everyone else has? I hate it when people get tattoos because they think that they will "fit in" w/ some group. How silly! Your tat represents you.
