Hello everyone. Can someone please help me with the phrase:
"All of mine I carry with me, all of mine I give to others."
I got the first part, old phrase "omnia mea mecum porto", but i'm lost on the second part -- omnia mea alium addo?
thanks soo much!
love,
petra
@petra,
Yo, Petra
If you want a translation from English into Latin, you should indicate those points in your title or tags, so that folks who are able to help can find your post.
Sorry I can't myself.
@petra,
Very close!

...but save something for bus fare...
@McTag,
Thank you for mentioning it, it was my first time using this site and I didn't know.
Happy holidays!
@George,
Thank you soooo much, George!
And don't worry, there'll always be a bus fare. In fact, i am getting this tattoo as a reminder of a balanced life -- the 2 verses will go on my forearms; the best way to live one's life is in between these two states -- always giving a bit of me to others, but always keeping a piece with me.
Happy holidays!
Stumble It!
