The future is in the now!

For 21 year olds and under

This is what I want!

Enough of the sadness, the desperation, the hopelessness and the anger and frustration. It's time to stop buying into that crap!

Let's do something positive, creative and fullfilling.

I want your future! I want it vivid, glorious and I want it happy. I want you to paint me the life that you want on the canvas of your choice in the colors that you like. I want your masterpiece. Look into your own crystal ball and show me in detail a life that is filled with good things

Tell me about your best possible mate, job, place to live, hobbies, your home, children and grandchildren. Say it in your words and soar. Tell me about a future that I would be envious to live.

Give me your inner love expressed as the outer world that you create for yourself.

Rules!

1. There isn't any. Its your contest, your entries and your expression.
2. Have a blast!

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on March 28
  • Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 5 people
  • Final notes:
    I am amazed!

    By what each and every one of you shared with me. There is no fair way to judge this contest. Each of you brought a different vision, form and beauty to a future that I hope each one of you finds.

    Gold-to my future love
    Your creative narrative and form took down the gold. I liked your take on the prompt.

    Silver-Far back at age eighteen
    You gave the gold a good run for her money. Also, a very different way to present a narrative that was emotionally touching.

    Bronze-All I see
    I knew how difficult this was for you. You opened up and spoke from your heart. Your incorporating me in the vision and soul searching got you the bronze.

    HM's All of you did something unique that I wished I could have rewarded trophies to. Your work earned acknowledgement for its insight, romanticism and desire for a better future.

    Thank you all, for participating!
