Summing up your life in six words

Hi All,
I was just about the shut er' down for the night when I thought I would visit the LPM blog. While there I read a funny insert that I thought I would duplicate. So here is the insert written by Melissa, Beth Moore's daughter.

Several months ago I came across a fascinating blog post. The author briefly discussed a trend (back-in-the-day) among writers/authors to sum up their lives, or in other words to succinctly write their memoir, using only six words. Here are a few examples he cited or I came across:
"For Sale: baby shoes, never worn”-Ernest Hemingway
“Bumpy road, kissed toad, recovery mode!”-anonymous blogger comment
“My flame flickers but never fails”-anonymous blogger comment

Now I didn’t come up with this idea, but I thought this would be so fun and insightful to do on our blog. I love learning more about our community and seeing firsthand how much creativity and diversity we have in our group.So here are a few of mine as of right this moment:
“Loving this life --Longing for next”
"Never forget--> the heart is resilient"
"Big Heart. Bigger Dreams. Biggest Mouth"

So, if you had to sum up your life in six words and six words only, how would you do it?I look forward to reading your comments. If you are unable to comment, you can write me at my lotdj715@att.net.

Laugh until you almost pass out,
Jennifer
