もくようびいれずみへいきます。りゅうとななづす。

Over the weekend, i got a tattoo.  It is of a 7 with a dragon wrapped around it.  Seven used to be a nickname of mine, but ive come to understand the religious and mytholigical meaning behind it.  In Christianity, there are the seven sacraments, the seven virtues, and the seven deadly sins.  In Japanese mythology there are the Seven Lucky Gods.  The dragon represents wisdom and longevity.

すごい!Catholicのがこうしちねんかんにべんきょうしました。Never again!=) But it is interesting that you got a tattoo with a number 7...who knows where the mythology actually came from...maybe there is some validity to it=).
