My witness is the empty sky

This is Crystal's tattoo.

It reminds me that I don't live for others! I dont need to believe their perceptions or assumptions, and whether or not they think who I am/what I do.. really matters.

"My witness is the empty sky."

  1. What a truly gorgeous girl! :o)

  2. That is beautiful… Love the quote. Love the style.

  3. I’m a graphic designer with a love of typography. Many of the tattoos on this site don’t have a ton of thought put into the lettering (it’s often a frequently used font rather than custom lettering, especially when a script is chosen). This one may be a font, but if so, it’s a really well chosen one. I love the meaning of the words, the way they look and the placement. Bravo.

    • It took me a LONG LONG LLONNNG time to find the kind of font I wanted & it almost didnt happen as I only had a picture of the font and the artist was convinced it woudnt work out. Thankfully I convinced him, and it turned out awesome!

      <3 thanks for the kind words!

  4. Love your tattoo! Great placement, beautiful font, gorgeous girl. I so have a girl crush right now! Lol

  5. Do you know what page this quote is on in the book “Some of the Dharma?” Been looking for it. . .
