Now, I have two tattoos already - one on my left calf and the other on my back. But I want more. For awhile I've actually wanted to get ink. After I dropped my weight, I wanted something that would both remind me of all the things I went through to get it off and I think that would in turn help me stay disciplined.
What do I want, exactly?
This:

What is that? Gibberish? Actually, it's Japanese lettering, or kanji. The words' meanings are beneath each word.
Now, there's a reason to my madness. I've been to Japan, so it's not just some random lettering that I don't have experience with. Actually, being in Japan felt like I was on a different planet. And a lot of that feeling was because of the alphabet. I couldn't tell what was what, and it was all overwhelming.
Anyway, the words above mean something to. I try and be disciplined. I have commitment and determination as well.
Where do I want these?

On my arm.
Will it hurt? Yeah, probably. But I want to get some ink done, and that's what I have to go through I suppose.
I'd like to get either "discipline" on one arm and "commitment" on the other, or get them both on one arm and "determination" and another adjective befitting of my journey.
Maybe it's just more window shopping than anything but something I'd love to get.
