The only sentence #1

Posted by Oksana on June 8, 2011

I decided to create this pattern to challenge myself because I agree that wordiness often becomes a tomb of the idea.

challenge, only-sentence

Oh, Expector, please, don't make me blush... :)
Thanks for dropping by! :)

Only those who are smart enough can make a sentence like this:))

The idea of posting that picture is that any piramid is quite a paradoxical thing, it's a tomb, a beautiful but funeral place. Wordiness might be the same.

@Nafis & @Nadiyah,

It seems I am not alone who wanted to meet a challenge. ;) So, you might try to make an associative sentence related to this image.

My way was opposite. I formulated the thought and then found the picture.

Good attempt, Nafis! I wish I could visit these impressive places.

@Tara,

It was inspired by this thing - twitter.com/#!/GreatestQuotes (both the service and the page in particular).

@Syed Faisal Ali,

Thanks for your comment. I'll try to make something that seemed impossible for me.

Hi Martin,

How did you guess my hidden intention? ;)
Yeah, it's a real challenge for me... to condense words and place them into a tiny shell.

from one sentence would become a book .. Wow great challenge, Oksana!

My sentence :

I promise on front of this picture, surely I'll visit this pyramid!

Wow! Very interesting.

Dear Oksana, I didn't get what you meant. Do you mean we should write a sentence about the above picture?
