Meaningful Tattoo Ideas for Girls

A tattoo without meaning is like a sentence without spaces. In fact, it is worthless to even get a tattoo inked if it doesn't reflect you or your life in some way or the other.

So, when it comes to something as permanent as a tattoo, how could we ignore the meaningfulness in the design? Fret not, this Buzzle article gives you some great meaningful tattoo ideas for girls.

[A] genuine tattoo... tells a story...., and if they don't tell a story that involves you emotionally, then they're just there for decoration, then they're not a valid tattoo. There has to be some emotional appeal or they're not, to my way of thinking, a real tattoo. It tells people what you are and what you believe in, so there's no mistakes. 

― Leo, Tattooist, 1993, quoted in Margo DeMello, Bodies of Inscription, 2000

So, think before you ink!
