Short quotes about being beautiful on your own, or about self-happiness, or just about something in that area.? I have a tattoo I am getting covered up because I’m not happy with the original artists work from a few years back, plus it’s faded and such. I have a pretty good idea of what I want the design to be (suggestions welcome!), but I really want a quote to put with it. To give you a better idea of the direction of the quote, here’s some info of where I am going with it all: From earlier on I have had bad trust issues with males. I was molested when I was 16 to begin with. Then I was left earlier this year by my best friend of five years/fiance of two years for someone else. On top of it, he had been over seas on duty for the past year, and I had waited tirelessly for him and devoted myself and energy to making it as easy as possible for him, in any way I could The person who helped get me through being left and get back to a place of happiness was my best friend/boyfriend from high school, Jake. We dated in HS and were very serious all the way to our first year in college, but it didn’t work out. After becoming closer through his helping me, I began to have feelings for him again, and he felt the same, even telling me he still loved me/was still in love with me, and was hurt when he found out I was engaged. I felt like maybe I was really going to be able to get past the being left by my fiance, because up until that point I was having some bad trust issues. It turns out though that while talking to me, Jake was also talking to other girls, and the more trust I gave him and the more I opened up to him about how I felt towards him (before finding out about the other girls), the more he pretty much abused me mentally. I didn’t know how to react, because up until then he had never called me a name even in joking. I was so confused, that I didn’t even know how to react. He was a totally different person at times. It got to where when he was nice, I would essentially forgive him and just move past it, but then he would just go and put me down again. Last night was the final straw, when he decided to get drunk on new years eve, and call me pretty much every name in the book, and every vulgar, mean phrasing of them you can think of.
So I need a quote. I need a quote about how you can be beautiful on the inside and out all on your own, about how you don’t need someone else (esp. a man) to make you happy. About how nobody can bring you down but yourself. About how the heart and soul can pull through anything. I need a quote about independent happiness. I need a quote about independent beauty, happiness, success, love, and strength.
Obviously a pretty weighty quote… Or if you have any idea about tattoo designs or drawings to represent that, those or more than welcome too.
It seems ur a strong and determined women being through so much yet in this short life…
I really like these two quotes:
-Love is like magic but magic is sometimes simply an illusion
-By the time you swear you’re his,
shivering and sighing,
and he vows his passion is
Infinite, Undying,
Lady make a note of this—-
One of you is lying…
They both just make so much sense!
(Happy new year…hope it brings joy and happiness to ur life after soo much of the striving) References :
I’m really, really sorry that you’ve had such bad luck with Jake as well as with your ex-fiancee.
I’m a guy, and not all that monogamous by impulse, and I don’t know if I can help you. I also hesitate to advise you on tattoos — I don’t like tattoos that much. I think you need to engrave your inspiring quotations on your mind, or on your soul if we have souls — not necessarily on your skin.
But I wish you well as you search for independent happiness, based on what’s inside you — not based on what some man (like me) may happen to think of you.
Possible quotes:
"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle."
— feminist Gloria Steinem, I think — but please look it up to be sure.
"What does not kill me makes me stronger.’
— Friedrich Nietzsche (quote is approximate; please look it up. Warning: Nietzsche in some ways was a sexist jerk, but it’s still a good quote)
"You are the Crown of Creation"
== The Jefferson Airplane
"That, Svedartu, That art Thou."
— the Upanishads, speaking about the Godhead = Brahman = that pervades all References :

We never receive as much love as we need, and hopefully less than we gave away.
Love makes us beautiful.
Happiness can be shared with others, but it must come from within.
Everything you want in life: freedom, beauty, happiness, success, love, and strength…
is under this tattoo.
