Your Life Story in Six Words =)
March 24, 2008 06:58

Read the following in another forum and thought of sharing with all community members here... This great discussion has really value added to Jamie's life. =)

Quote: [The Toronto Star recently sent out a call to readers to write their life story in six words. The idea originated two years ago by a New York editor who created a book from the entries.

"The six-word memoir is a perfect exercise for our culture, hooked as we are on confession and the instant gratification of texting."

Here are some samples written in this past weekend's Saturday Star:

"Four kids make life wonderfully chaotic." "Troubled orphan, grieved, surprised, forgave, happy." "Financially good: Everything else a bust." "I have not accomplished much... yet." "Can you use six words to describe your life journey thus far?"]

Wow! Really made jamie think... like to give it a try? =)

Let Jamie have a go first...

"falling and hurting, learning and growing"!

What's yours? =)
