You're opinion on this? :)?

Just my luck. I've been wanting to get a tattoo since I was about 16 (I'm 20 now). I've always just kind of backed out of it because of job security...I just didn't want it to be an issue when I tried looking for a professional job in the future, but I decided last year I'd get in on the back of my neck, that way I could hide it when I wanted to and show it when I wanted to. Anyway, I knew I wanted "You are beautiful" either in French or in Italian (no particular reason for the language, I just feels it's more elegant) because of personal reasons I will not mention on here I just want to be able to look at it everyday and remind myself that it's true. ANYWAY, long story short, right when I decided I was going to get it, this Kardashian girl comes out on her show wanting to get it there. So now I'm extremely discouraged because people will only think I copied her, even though I didn't and it would mean a lot to me. What do you guys think? Should I still get it? Or will it be dumb now that this girl has made it so "mainstream"?

Also, just to clarify, my concern isn't for the location of the tattoo...I know I want the back of my neck and won't change the location whatsoever. It's just the phrase itself that I don't want people thinking I stole just because it came out on the show. :)

    I was walking through the store the other day, and noticed this strikingly beautiful woman, dressed to the nines, and she had this deserted island tattoo in fine line color on the back of her neck. I stopped her and asked her who did that amazing tattoo on the back of your neck, and she said a really good artist in Florida did it. It took your breath away to look at. Now, I'm not saying that your selection is wrong or bad in any way, I'm just saying that eye-poppin' skin art will always walk all over a lettering tattoo. Real art moves us in ways we don't even understand ourselves, and people will say, "Wow! Where did you get THAT done?!" Instead of the "Hmm" you will get from a quote or word tattoo. People stop me wherever I go, to ask if they can take a photo of mt realism work on my sleeves. Look through some art books, and a lot of flash at tattoo shops, before you decide what to put there. You'll know it when you see it, and it will make you look exotic, rather than opinionated. A picture still is worth a thousand words, always has been. Please consider what I said, and take good care. If you do it up right, you will never regret it, and never tire of it, I promise you.

    I can see why persons comply with religions and I realize the origins however I in my view do not think in it. I feel religions can also be very damaging now not best to oneself however the typical populace. Religion has brought on suicides, mass segregation, wars, and genocides. Alternatively, they are able to be the certain reverse too and carry peace to a couple of countries. I might in no way take a look at to transform any person and I desire no person attempts to covert me. I am flawlessly pleased dwelling my lifestyles the best way I do however I have a steady craving for extra expertise. Actually, I feel that is what every person must be concentrating on; expertise as a substitute of faith. It might resolve plenty of the sector's issues. :)

    You should maybe get like a proverb or something that has a similar meaning or a Symbol that means beauty or something like that. Because if you think otter people are judging you, you'll be self conscious about the tattoo.

    If it means somthing important to you, do it. Don't listen to people who say, "You just did it to be cool,". Tell them why you did it, and if they don't belive you, oh well. Do what you want to do.
