Shalom

 

Getting a tattoo is still on my mind.

I just need to figure it out with a girlfriend of mine.

There are always the thoughts about how it will look on the skin later, when you are getting old, and what will happen, if you start to dislike it.

Because it's a permanent thing, a lot of thoughts in advance are inquired.

And at last, it hurts. Why should you put yourself in a place of pain?

I like the idea of a tatto being a piece of memory. 

It's like taking or drawing a picture just that it will be on my body. 

It could represent a phase I went through or a part of my personality I want to underline.

That's why I wouldn't want one, which is just beautiful.

The one on the picture contains just a word, but it makes me smile.

You can think about it so much.

"Shalom" is hebrew and means "peace", but in Israel it's used on an every day base to say "hello".

So the question is: Does she want peace or is she just saying hello to you?

Besides it's not written in hebrew but in the english phonetics.

So, can she speak hebrew, but is not able to write it? Is she jewish? 

I love that a tattoo can avoke so many questions and thoughts in the people, who see it.

Do you have any suggestions?

For those who know me in real life: Do you also feel it?

Meet The Tattoologist!

Since a good girlfriend of mine got a ahorn leave tatooed on her foot, because she was six month in canada, since another girlfriend, who was in canada, told me about a canadian girl, who tatooed "notes" on her arm, because she was always writing notes on her arm in school. Since in Israel every one seemed to have a tatoo, even the innocent mothers, since I always dreamt about having stars tatooed all over my back, since I saw this one picture, which consisted of a red bow tatooed on the neck, which was only visible when wearing the hair high, I fell for tatoos. 

Now, via Bloglovin, I discovered the blog "Tattoologist" and I am amazed. I don't know nothing about the person behind the blog, except that she/he is going to bring out a book soon, which I am awaiting to buy. This blog is really inspiring! You have to take a look at it!

Seit sich eine gute Freundin von mir, die sechs Monate in Kanada war, ein Ahornblatt auf den Fuß tätoowieren ließ, seit mir eine andere gute Freundin, die auch in Kanada war, über eine Schulfreundin berichtete, die sich das Wort "notes" auf ihren Unterarm tätoowieren ließ, weil sie sich dort immer Schulnotizen drauf machte. Seit es in Israel so aussah als hätte wirklich jeder Israeli ein Tatoo (sogar brav aussehenden Mütter), seit ich immer davon träumte mir Sterne quer über den Rücken stechen zu lassen, seit ich ein Bild gesehen habe, auf dem ein Mädchen sich eine rote Schleife in den Nacken hat machen lassen und die man nur sah, wenn sie ihre Haare hoch trug, bin freue ich mich über Tatoos.

Jetzt habe ich den Blog "Tattoologist" durch Bloglovin entdeckt und freue mich über all die tollen Tatoos und Möglichkeiten. Ich weiß nichts über die Person, die hinter dem Blog steht, außer dass sie/er ein Buch herausbringen wird, auf das ich warten werde. Dieser Blog ist wirklich inspirierend! Ihr müsst ihn euch anschauen!
