Reader Kat has emailed me yesterday this photo of her husband's back:
He got it done four years ago and the characters should be Knowledge, Loyalty, Courage, Warrior, & Father.
Since Alan just got back from Japan, I forwarded this to him. Here is what Alan concludes:
Besides the terrible calligraphy, the character 識 is missing a dot at the upper right-hand corner. Also, the stroke at the bottom center of 寿 is supposed to be a separate dot rather than the incorrect connected stroke pointing down and to the right that we see.
Anyway, the characters mean roughly as follows:
識 knowledge, consciousness
寿 congratulations, celebration, long life, sushi
危 danger, dangerous
狂 crazy, insane, mad
父 father
Is this supposed to mean "celebrate the knowledge of a dangerous, crazy father" or something?
I don't get the whole picture but it doesn't sound very complementary to the "father." The characters do not seem to mean anything like they think they do.
We have so much fun together as two scorpio's in a relationship that it's impossible to tell you about it in a single blog post.
