Loyaulte me lie

I’ve designed a handful of tattoos for myself over the years, only one of which I haven’t rejected at some point. 

‘Loyaulte me lie’ in script around my left wrist.

It’s the motto England’s King Richard III claimed to live by, and it means “Loyalty Binds Me”.  Whether he actually lived by that code is something historians have debated for years, but I’m not really that interested in Richard III.  Sorry, dead dude.

I promised myself that if a tattoo design stayed on my list for 5 years, I’d take the leap and get inked. 

It’s been four and a half years.  Loyaulte me lie.  To do it or not to do it?  Eeep.

Tell me:  What binds you?

OR, if you’d rather not go there,

Do you have a tattoo designed for yourself, or if you’re already inked, do you have a favorite?  Share.

I have the Japanese symbol for patience tattooed on the inside of my left wrist. Over the years, through many ups and downs, people always told me to have patience. That things would come together eventually. It’s hard for me to grasp hold of sometimes, but it’s helped me remember.

Oh wow. Never in a million years could I tattoo myself. NOT A FAN of needles, first of all. And I can’t imagine something that I would want on my body for the rest of my life. I have seen plenty of lovely tattoos on various lovely brave souls, though, and I really like the meaning behind your potential choice.

I have a bee on my left wrist in remembrance of my grandmother. She was the lifeline of the family and my her heart was my home. Getting a tattoo is a very personal decision. I don’t regret mine.

No tattoos for me. I have also designed many for myself…but nothing really sticks. There are several that I still like, but 5 years is a short time when you think about the rest of your life.
I would say have someone paint in for you above your bed or on your living room wall.
If you still love it there in 5 years…THEN consider it.

I came *thiiiiiis* close after my dad died but knew my mom didn’t need something else to upset her. But there’s one I’ve been tweaking since college that my husband is going to take me to go get once I hit a certain milestone. Possibly this spring we’ll be road-tripping to Vegas for tattoos. Yikes!

I’ve been thinking of getting one for years. I have about three half-designed and just need to decide on one and really flesh it out. The one I’m leaning toward the most involves the word “wisdom” which has significance for me.

Can’t wait to see yours! I expect photos!

Sick and tired of getting low amounts of useless visitors to your website? Well i wish to tell you about a new underground tactic that produces myself $900 daily on 100% AUTOPILOT. I possibly could be here all day and going into detail but why dont you merely check their website out? There is a great video that explains everything. So if your serious about producing easy money this is the website for you. Auto Traffic Avalanche

I have also designed many for myself…but nothing really sticks. There are several that I still like, but 2 years is a short time when you think about the rest of your life.
