Be Still
I love tattoos comprised of words. When done well, they are fascinating.
The phrase "be still" on the inner left forearm of Tara, above, has a simple and beautiful meaning.
She explained that she understands the phrase as the only expression that is common to the Bible, the Koran, and ancient Hindu proverbs.
The tattoo artist used the font Dear Joe 4 and this was done at Stingray Body Art in Allston, Massachusetts near Boston.
Thanks to Tara for sharing her words with us here on Tattoosday!

There are many tattoo designs on here that are greatly detailed, but when I came across this one that only read two words, it stopped. Even though it was so simple, it spoke volumes and the font is great.
