(no subject)
So I have an idea for this really cool Tattoo that i've been pondering about and this is a way to fit it into some nice words! lol
It's a really symbolic piece of a giant fig tree, and it will start with the canopy on the backside of my upper leg then its tree-ness and its trunk will go all the way down my leg eventually "rooting" down my ankle/foot section portraying that I am grounded, I have a solid mission of my own and that is to grow.
Some would ask, oh well why a fig tree?
Well, they are the deepest rooting trees in South Africa which i will one day visit, and even when they are burnt and destroyed to the ground, they can re-sprout again and grow into another whole tree
can't keep the fig tree down and out from life -two thumbs up-
It also holds the biblical references that fig leaves were used to cover the genitals. haha, It represents my prude side, my willingness to grow, and my desire to travel! Fig trees also have an invisible flower. This flower looks like a bead, maybe a hard fruit(which it sorta is) but the flower grows on the inside and there in a small "compartment for pees to pollinate which was kinda cool, maybe symbolic for only needing a little bit of man action here and there
and
The biblical quote "each man under his own vine and fig tree" (1 Kings 4:25) has been used to denote peace and prosperity.
which I really quite enjoyed.
idk, i'm looking for picture references. lol
