This is so fucking important for me...!! Let me show and explain!
It's a cherry blossom with the german sentence "Ich habe es nie bereut" wich means "I've never regretted it", I mean my whole life because I know that every step and decision I took made me become who I am now, and I love myself as I am.
The sentence is from Rammstein's song Frühling in Paris, which I truly love, the cherry tree is bleeding both because the sonsg says "when I leave her skin the Spring bleed in Paris" and both because I feel like a blossom bleeding cherry tree, because life hurts and hurted, but I am beautifully alive with my flowers.
When I had already decided to get this tattoo I found this other ong, which I never listened to, but I loved the meaning, let me post the German here:
Ich hab es nie bereut
dass ich zu vorschnell war und laut
ich hab es nie bereut
zu sagen, was mein Herz so denkt
auch wenn es oft nicht immer gut und richtig
in ander'n Ohren klingt
ich hab es nie bereut
so zu sein wie ich
Which means:
I've never regretted
that I was too hasty and loud
I've never regretted
to say what my heart thought
although it not always good and right
to different ears sounded
I've never regretted
to be like me
Also, there is a japanese proverb which says:
Hana wa sakuragi, hito wa bushi
"Amongst flowers the cherry tree, amongst men the warrior"
So now I just leave you with the song which inspired my tattoo, hoping you'll like it:
A big strong hug,
Brunhild
