They say a picture is worth a thousand words. That would make it a story. Tell me yours. How do you view you vs the world. Do you fit? How. Be descriptive but not expective. No cussing...lol. Young or old none of us feel like we fit.
I don't have more points than the main winner, but will catch up on all entries later as is my reputation.
I want to give a special thanks to Beret55 for the extra points to award everyone!!! rose

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on June 8, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100
- Final notes: Very difficult to judge. I did choose those who wrote from a them vs world view to win. Though a good many need to use spellcheck, that wasn't my goal for this contest. As for those who did not win, as I get points I will award them as a gift to each honorable. Sorry I didn't gain enough points in time. Beautiful job everyone. I have to be off to an appointment now, so I will give each more personal comments later.

Thank you ALL for entering!!!
Since I just posted the contest I am unable at this time to comment on each piece. I hope you understand. My goodness, I have never had so many people enter so quickly. I will read each and every one of the pieces. So much talent and such interesting ways of portraying the way they see the world vs them. I am honored by you all. This will be a difficult one for me to judge.
