I’ve been planning on getting “I’ve had a little too much to think” tattooed on my arm, but I’m starting to second guess that a bit. I still want something to remind me not to over analyze everything and to just let go sometimes. So, I’ve decided on “stop worrying over nothing” from “The Ocean.” Aside from that being my favorite Tegan and Sara song, that line summarizes my entire persona so incredibly well. I know it’s cliche to say it, but Tegan and Sara really did help me come to terms with myself. They really showed me that not only is it okay to be gay, but that there is a whole world in which I can be myself without being judged, and without having to worry over nothing.
Also, in running with the theme of oceans, I think I want to have like a line drawing of waves above the text. To me the ocean represents letting go, and I have to remember to do that sometimes. The waves also remind me about my insignificance compared to something as huge and untamable as an ocean, and I think it’s a necessary reminder that I am only one person. Kind of to say, “Don’t expect yourself to save the world. You’re only one person.”
Anyway, yeah. Please excuse the fact that I have the handwriting of a 12 year old boy.
