From BME’s love themed tattoo gallery, here’s two ways of talking about love. On the left we’ll start with a simple love letter, on Lil Miss Strange by Lucas in Beerse, Belgium. On the right is a tattoo by Mark at On Edge in The Netherlands, with a slightly more indepth explanation — “love is the reunification of the two halves of a split soul”.

The left on looks like the words are all jumbled in the sentence, but its because they wrote “is the reunification of the two halves ” in two lines, and then UNDER those two lines they added “of a split soul”..
which means that if you’re trying to read like a normal english person, you’ll be tempted to read left to right, but that would then make this :
“Love the reunification of a split of the two halves soul”
.. …….
that obviously doesn’t make sense, you have to kind of unjumble the words if figure out how its written..
anyways i just find that a bit odd, but they both send out a beautiful message: love. 🙂

“Love is the reunification of two halves of a split soul” sounds an AWFUL lot like the main philosophical concept behind Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
