So it goes #39, 40, 41

This is Megan's.

I got this tattoo in memory of my friends & family who have passed on. It's to remind me that their death's were not in vain & that life, indeed, does go on.

This is Katie's.

This is Dan's.

I got the tattoo for the same reason everyone else who gets it did, I love the quote from the book and the message about death and destiny that it carries. Vonnegut is hands down my favorite writer of all time and when I decided I wanted a tattoo it was an obvious decision who would be my inspiration. It was just a matter of which quote I wanted and this one won out pretty easily.
This was posted as a part of “So it Goes” Saturdays. The phrase “so it goes” appears in Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five 106 times. Can you help me collect 106 “so it goes” tattoos? 41 down, 65 to go.
