Not Quite What I Was Planning For

Death Knocked yesterday, was not home

My first addiction was to books

Never had financial problems till Starbucks!

Keeping fingers away from deli slicer

Smith Magazine writes,

Legend has it that Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” Last year, SMITH Magazine re-ignited the recountre by asking our readers for their own six-word memoirs. They sent in short life stories in droves, from the bittersweet (“Cursed with cancer, blessed with friends”) and poignant (“I still make coffee for two”) to the inspirational (“Business school? Bah! Pop music? Hurrah”).

Can you tell your story in six words?

I've come up with a veritable handful of these, but none of them quite captures the complexity or the simplicity of life. I'll go with this one for now:

"Jesus loves me, this I know..."

Blessings!
