So I've decided I am going with this tattoo for sure now. i do have one last question however. for the second sentence:
ときどきぼくにはそれがただひとつ の正しい行為であるように思える。

It's too long to write in one line. Where do you think would be a good place to break it up? I've been trying different things, but I don't know where a natural place to start a new line would be... Maybe something like:


ぼくは夢を見る。
ときどきぼくにはそれがただひとつの正しい
行為であるように思える。

or maybe:

ぼくは夢を見る。
ときどきぼくにはそれがただ
ひとつの正しい行為であるように思える。

Again, I don't know if either of these look awkward to the native speaker or not, but I do need to break up that sentence into two lines. It just doesn't fit on one line, due to the length of it.
Also, I don't know much about writing Japanese vertically, but that's also a possibility. what do you guys think?
