You know, like a saying that you live you're life by. I've been thinking all day, and I just can't find one that truly fits me. I'm about 5'6. blonde, blue eyes, althletic, I have a bunch of brothers and two dogs, I love to sing and play guitar, I love volleyball, I hate math and love French and English. That's about me in a nutshell, please help me get a mantra, but not one that's normal like, "Don't worry, be happy", or "That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Something unique. Thanks!

What do you want? Do you want fluff, or something that will center you on who you can be and help you get there. Your description of yourself is so flighty and superficial that you probably want something cute to have bent into a medallion in gold wire.
I don't do cute and fluffy. If you want to take your life into capabilities that you don't suspect you are capable of, check out http://www.sgi-usa.org or click on my avatar and email me.

"I am a being of violet fire, I am the purity God desires" works, particularly if you visualize yourself standing under a violet waterfall or in a violet light, or even a golden-violet light.
Kindly see "The Science of the Spoken Word," Mark Prophet.

It won't be very unique if it comes from someone other than YOU.
