My Life In Six Words...

I'm here listening to The Movement Within on http://www.blogtalkradio.com/ and TMW CEO, April Claxton, is interviewing Larry Smith, co-founder of smithmag.net...

"SmithMag.net which is an online magazine that has turned into a complete online community. Each day at SMITH Magazine, members unleash a frenzy of self-expression in the form of Six-Word Memoirs. More than 300,000+ Six-Word Memoirs have come in to SMITH Mag (and its younger, amazing cousin, SMITH Teens http://www.smithteens.com//) since the project was launched. He is also one of the creators of the Six-Word Memoir book series that can be found at amazon.com and bookstores worldwide. Smith's six-word memoir? "Now I obsessively count the words."

Well, I am also, now, thinking of a way to describe my life in six words... Right now, I can come up with:

  • GRATEFUL WOMAN WITH PURPOSE-FILLED LIFE.
  • I AM HUNGRY, WHAT TO EAT?
  • LOOKING FORWARD TO TWO WEEKS VACATION...
  • LIFE IS BETTER DURING A SUNSET
  • NEED TO GO BACK TO WORK
  • NEVER GIVE UP, SOMEONE ALWAYS WORSE
  • ALARM CLOCKS ARE NOT MY FAVORITE
  • I MISS LUA, MY BEAUTIFUL DOG
  • FAMILY AND FRIENDS RESIDE IN MY HEART
  • DENTIST VISITS ARE GREAT WHEN PAINLESS

Ok.. so here are 10, I came up with in a couple of minutes.. I love this idea.. I think it also works great when I'm having some type of writer's block, because it forces my brain to work when it is thinking about doing something else..

  • SIX WORD MEMOIRS CURE WRITER'S BLOCKS... ;-)

Of course, I can be more profound with these, but I'm listening to the radio show right now and just playing with words, but I truly love this concept - Great way to get me to stop procrastinating when I know it's time to write, write, write...
