Warrior Spirit
So, what do you and your friends do when they all turn/turned 40? I've got an idea, pack your sleeping bags and pillows, drive down to NY, have a sleep over at your dear friend's apartment, go down to St Marks Street and get some ink! I highly recommend it. Here's what I got-
It means warrior spirit or essence of warrior. At first I thought it just meant 'warrior' but upon further research I found out it actually means Warrior spirit which is what I originally wanted. I'm very happy with it. Its on my leg and as soon as its healed nicely I'll post a picture of it.

NICE!
I have kofuku (happiness)
:D
Oooo, love the ink! I just got these rather large inner forearm(both of them) tattoos last Friday. One is a tiger and one is a dragon. I'll post pictures. More ink! Congratulations. I also have the kanji for four of the "Five Rings" (the book, that is, by Musashi).

Karrie and Mat, thanks! I would love to see pictures of your tattoos!!
I've got a band on my leg that I'd like completed with something martial but I can never decide with what! Nice choice of celebration.
WHaaaaaa?!! Too much pain for me! :)
That's cool. I don't do tattoos myself, but I don't have anything against those who do get them.
errr
you don't want to know where it is.
;-P
Very nice! Is that your first tattoo?
I have two, and plan to get another. They're addictive! Almost as addictive as martial arts training. :)
My comment is the same as Becky's. But I like your choice! I always thought that if I did get something, it'd be a Songahm star (the symbol/base of my form of TKD) on the base of my heel so that when I went to kick someone, that's what they'd see! But I'm too chicken. My 40th (gasp!) is at the end of the summer, so I'll have to think of something else that's just as exciting to do...;-)
OUCH.. oh no.. not for me. I'm happy for you, but me? um.. no.. thank you. My skin has enough decoration, thank you.
Disclaimer: I have no certification in Tatooing, or body art. My opinion is only that of my own.
Where did you research to learn this character means "warrior spirit"?
That's a nice choice! I still haven't made up my mind on mine.
Nice tattoo! I have two tattoos. Its a great way to decorate the body externally with what we feel internally. :)
