Please share your personal lifes' motto with me.
This is my very first contest and as you can probably
surmise I am a little bit nervous about all the wording
and what have yous.
We will close this thing down after 100 good entries.
That's all, folks...now lay it on me...
Rules;
1. No overly explicit language (please, keep it kid friendly)
2. What I am looking for are the positive, upbeat,
inspirational mottos. (those submitted outside of these
parameters will be axed out without explanation unless
I so choose to reveal)
3. Any tasteful form will be accepted.

Hello! I've got to ruin my anonymity here lol. Just wanted to let you know that my poem, though AP says it's 11 lines long, is actually only 5. For some reason it counts the spaces I've put at the beginning and ending as lines. Odd but yes. Happy judging!
Love and light,
Jenna -
Positive? 100?
No chance.
-
Are you allowing more than one entry per person? AP, in it's infinite wisdom (snicker) has removed that particular feature from contests so we never know unless the host mentions it or we take a risk and try!

thank you for the gold
