Tattoo

For a couple of years now I have been planning my second tattoo. I know what I want and I know where I want it. My plan is for a line of text to wrap around my lower right arm right below elbow. The text will be one of the teaching of the ancient Greek philosopher, Epicurus, called the tetrapharmakos.

I've been waiting to make sure it's something that I definitely want on my body permanently. I still want it after several years, so I think I'll be okay. 

I have also been trying to figure out exactly what I want it to look like. Should it be in modern greek lettering? Maybe a different calligraphy style? I figured I wanted it to look as close to it would have looked written by Epicurus himself. 

The picture above wasn't actually written by him, but one of his followers years later. The look, though, is basically the same. Without having any other way to write it down in the string of words in the manner I want, I've been hand drawing the characters to try and test what I would want the typography to look like. 

Then just by accident the other day I found a website with the following downloadable font:

For whatever reason, I wasn't looking up the exact right things to find this site before but I somehow stumbled upon now. 

Coincidence? Perhaps. A sign that it's time for me to finally treat myself to the tattoo I've been wanting?  Also possible. I do owe a gift to myself for my recent birthday still yet a Christmas gift. This could be what I gift to myself. 

What do you think, universe? Are you telling me to get my second tattoo? I'll take your silence as a "yes."
