open-minded / free your mind

Summary:

Simple, all-black symbol for "open-minded" or "free your mind" on right tricep.

Description:

Tattoo is for my right tricep (back of the arm). I'd say about 2-3" wide by 5-7" tall. I'm thinking all black. Don't really want colors unless I see something great that changes my mind. I have an all-black tribal on the outside of my left shoulder and upper arm, so I want this tattoo to kind of look good with that one, not be awkwardly contrasting. 

I'm a very open-minded person in the sense that I have opinions on things, and I try to do things, because they logically make sense, not because it's tradition or "that's what everyone else does" or "that's what you're supposed to do". I want this tattoo to represent that. (You can also think of it as "thinking outside the box" or "seeing things for what they really are").

I prefer symbols to written words, but I searched for a symbol for either "open minded" or "free your mind" and couldn't find anything. I really like Kanji, but I have a different tattoo in mind for that. If there's no acceptable symbol and it has to be imagery, one thing I thought of was a brain breaking out of some sort of cage. But I don't know if that would work because I like simple and it has to be taller than it is wide.
