Default Ideas for tattoos you want to get?

I have a few:

1) My grandmother has a few weeks to live. She has kidney failure and declined dialysis because she also has leukemia. I wanted to get a tattoo dedicated to her because she is the first relative I've really loved to pass away when I'm old enough to know what's going on. We're really close and it is going to suck hard.

Anyways, the idea: There is a metal band called Zao who heavily influenced me when I was a teenager. Anyways, they have a song called "To Think Of You Is To Treasure An Absent Memory". The singer wrote it about a loved one he lost. The lyrics that would go on the tattoo would be "My heart broke open." I'm not sure what the picture would be. Back of left calf would be where it goes. If anyone has a cool suggestion for a picture to go with the lyrics, that would be cool.

2) I'm definitely getting a dedication to my father. It will also be a dedication to Hemingway, my favorite writer. I found the line "He taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him" in Old Man and the Sea, so I figured that works because his #1 passion in life is fishing. I think this one will go on my left forearm and will be the man in his skiff looking off into the sunset with the line from the book above and below the scene, written in fishing line.

3) Straight edge tattoo! I've had this drawn up already and it looks awesome. Actually, it was drawn about two years ago but I figured I'd wait until I had more life experience to decide whether or not I should commit myself. Of course, I've spent the last year traveling around the world with boozehounds and have never had a second thought about drinking or smoking, so voila. It is a cartooney knight holding a shield with 3 x's on it (for straight edge, not p0rn). Banner above "stand", banner below "strong". Lyrics from a hardcore song.

Phew, that took a while to type.

Do you all have ideas for tattoos you want? Any suggestions for me?
