When I saw this exercise, I honestly thought I couldn't do it. Anyone who has read anything of mine knows I'm very verbose and I don't really know how to be any other way. I found it challenging, but I sat down with it, I took some time, and I figured out something that I absolutely love. It was writing this, the trouble writing this, that sparked the sentence itself, and oh, how it resounds the sentiment of coming up with the dreaded sentence!!!
The Sentence:
Whilst we spend all our time looking for inspiration and meaning in the environment for something compelling and unique, we may be surprised to find that these things are often found deep within ourselves, and it is the treasure hunt for these things which makes the journey all the more worthwhile.
Write On Wednesdays Exercise 13 - A Great One Liner...This week you need to come up with one good line to describe a part of your day. It can be 'real life' or fiction. But it must tell us 'who did what'.

I like this a lot. It's really so often about the journey, rather than the destination. I'm rather verbose too so I hear you on that!
Nice one liner...long but to the point.
Hehehe! I like that you can make one line into three! This is very true though, the journey is the reward!
So true..
The words that you said is very much true. We all should look deep within ourselves and will find what we are looking for. I liked it very much. I am really impressed by your inspirational words. Thanks.
Thanks for your kind remarks on this exercise. It was definitely a challenge for me, but I did it :)
I love the treasure hunt analogy. Great one liner.
Can only agree.

Absolutely right! From one usually verbose writer to another ;)
This is great! For having a hard time with it, you did a nice job.
A lovely sentiment. This week was tough, one of the hardest for me so far, but so worthwhile. Good on you for rising to the challenge.
