but when i told melody "nice tattoo!", she replied "buddha."
maybe she figures guys would know the name buddha more than Guan Yi.

5. Nu Kua: Chinese Creator Goddess
Nu Kua, also called Nuwa, is a Chinese creator goddess. She fashioned the first humans out of clay, but became bored with the idea of creating all humans. Then she invented intercourse for humans to create themselves. Nu Kua is primordial, from the very beginnings of time. And she taught humans how to farm, how to build dams and control floods, and much more! Call on her for fertility and to aid in family affairs."
(* Guan Yin: Chinese Goddess of Love and Peace
Also called Kuan Yin or Quan Yin, this widely-known Chinese Goddess brings love, harmony and healing to any home or situation. The interesting thing about this Chinese goddess is that she crosses cultures and religions in the East and West. Guan Yin is considered an ascended master, a goddess, and a Bodhisattva. She’s venerated in Western spiritual practice as well as in Buddhism, Shintoism, and Taosim. Guan Yin may be the same deity as Mother Mary or Isis in the East. Call on her for mercy and compassion, healing of various ailments, protection over children and mothers, and as a guide to the afterlife.)
