Tattoo assignment

The tattoo that I would want when I'm older would be the following. It would be a ying and yang symbol because I believe in it. I think it has such a beautiful meaning, the way I see it is there is the bad and the good, in every good there is a little bit of bad and in every bad there is a bit of good. What my tattoo will symbolize will be something that is very close to my heart, it is the ying and yang symbol on my upper neck because I feel like that is something I should keep close to my brain so I'll always remember it. It like a permanent reminder. And under the yin and yang will be two dates. The first just like this 08•29•2012 and the second right under the first will say 07•07•2012 . These dates are very important to me. They symbolize what the ying and yang means the good and the bad the first date the 29th of August 2012 was the worst day of my life. It was the day my grandfather had a heart attack. Thank god when they took him to the hospital they said he would live, it was going to be a hard recovery but there was a good chance he would live through it. And that for me represents the good in the bad  basically the yin. And then the 7th of September of 2012 was the day my grandfather woke up from all this bevisw haw had been in an induced coma, so the day he woke was one of the best days of my life. This would be the yang, the good. But with every good comes a little bit of bad. The bad in this situation would be that when he was in the coma he had a breathing tube inside him so that caused damage to this throat and that almost killed him as well because his throat closed up and air couldn't go trough. So this really does mean a lot to me. I feel like it recaps some of the bad and the good moments in my lUkge and reminds me that things will get a bit better, no matter how bad the situation. I also feel like the place where I want it is appropriate. Because it's a permanent reminder and feel like because it's so close to my head, it's going to stick in my brain in a way even if that sounds weird it's special to me.  It would look like this. Just more scaled to size.

  1. I always thought the yin yang had a really cool meaning too, but I really like how much you personalized it and gave it a different meaning than just good and bad and you mad it different than the cliché yin-yang.
