Protection and Courage Symbols
According to Japanese legend if a koi succeeded in climbing the falls at a point called Dragon Gate on the Yellow River it would be transformed into a dragon. Based on that legend, it became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement. More generally, the Japanese associate koi (also known as carp) with perserverance in adversity and strength of purpose. Because of its strength and determination to overcome obstacles, it stands for courage and the ability to attain high goals..

Love & Pain
Lately, I have been through a lot emotionally. I've felt love, and I've felt pain... This weekend I decided to get some more ink. But, I wanted these tattoos to truly have meaning for what I am going through in my life... I got two tattoos, about 3" tall, on my left and right ribs. The symbol on the left [supposedly] stands for Love. The symbol on the right [supposedly] stands for Pain. I seem to feel these emotions a lot these days, unfortunately together in the same situations, over and over. I got the Love symbol on my left ribs, close to the heart, because I feel that someday, Love will truly trump the pain I have felt in some recent relationships. The Pain symbol is on my right side because, while the two seem to be interrelated at the moment, I would like to, at some point, separate the two. Obviously, I'll always have pain in my life, but I'm hoping for it not to be directl.
