Just some random thoughts Carole, but its difficult to come up with something short enough
Laughing is good
Believe
Make no little plans
Be silly, Be honest, Be kind.
Always make new mistakes
The journey is the reward.
Coffee isn't my cup of tea.
Smile
Truth is beautiful
Just do it!
Do it anyway
It WILL get better
Love life
Make It Real
Live life. Love Life
Pay it forward

I like the heart on my sleeve one

I really like the hidden message idea, have racked my brains and I can't think of an inspirational phrase, however you could translate , live , life , love into another language, her is the Spanish version "vivo , risa, amor" ,

I like the idea of words inside too. My wedding ring just has I Love You inside it - it was only £14.99 at Argos but DH wanted me to have the words inside.
What about an exerpt from a well known British poet. Can't think of any off the top of my head (I am Australian remember), so perhaps you could Google it.
I did make a neclace for my daughter with the words of an E.E. Cummings poem etched into it (but then I am sentimental)
It read:
I carry your heart with me
I carry it in my heart
I am never without it
anywhere I go, you go my dear
and whatever is done by only me
is your doing, my darling

That's so lovely Linda. Bit long for my purposes, but lovely all the same. Did your daughter love it?
I very much like hidden words, but I think they have to be meaningful rather than random. I'm afraid the Live Love Laugh thing has been rather done to death, and there are a huge number of sellers doing words on etsy now. I very much like 'I am loved' hidden inside gifts, and also words or phrases that mean something special to the recipient.
I put morse code on our wedding rings when I made them, using home-made tools, and it's made them even more special for me.
Would you be able to personalise 'on the spot' (or come back in 20 minutes sort of thing)?
