Ok so I will be getting a tattoo very soon that will involve the phrase "love eternal" I really like the phrase but Im not sure if its quite right ( as in how it sounds). So what i want are some suggestions for something that means the same and is simple like that. I like the long quotes but i dont want a long quote. Re wording is cool, oh and if you think its fine that way please say so.

I am also completely open to suggestions for different languages. All i ask is that they are not on a different alphabet ( as there will be more writing and I dont want to change it around) and that you be certain that its what it says. not that I wouldnt research it anyways as its goin on my body and everything.

Ok, id do more explaining but I gots to go to work so ill leave it here for now!

Love Eternal sounds awesome to me, honestly.

If I cannot go silently into that good night, then let me go loudly in a blaze of glory!!!

Sounds fine to me too. I can't think of any other short phrases really with the same meaning that sound right.

Depending on the type of love, I would put it in latin. But I like latin, and it might limit the interpretation.

I was wondering....you said that I was going to say ( I love eternal) was there any thing else to it? And just out of couriousty where was it going to be placed?

My Myspace is the right space

Actually a name goes with it. "Name Love Eternal" Would be it basically. But I didnt quite like how that sounded. Just reminded me of either a spouse/so or someone deceased.

I actually decided on "My Heart, Always" (with the help of Trin Sticking out tongue ) Got it done friday, its on my left ankle. WHich makes me happy because the placement balances my tattoo on my right ankle. Pics....soon

It's kind of awesome! And My Heart, Always, just makes it seem a bit more, total and whole, to me. Love eternal, while beautiful, does remind me more of a significant other, and that's not what this tattoo was meant to be.

It's really amazing - the tattoo. Simple, pure, well-done.
