6 Words

What if you were given the task to sum up all that you are or have ever been in only six words?  Would you be able to complete that task and if so how much thought and time would go into taking a lifetime and reducing it down to only six words?

A few days ago while reading "Our Daily Bread" I came upon a passage that discussed the task of constructing a six word statement to sum up an entire existence.  This passage went on to speak about the great American writer and Pulitzer Prize winner Ernest Hemingway and how he was challenged with this task by his colleagues and what a great line he came up with and later turned into a wonderful short story.  Hemingway’s six words were "For sale: baby shoes, never used", I think those six words speak volumes about a life's beginning and a man, made.  The passage also spoke about all of the six word descriptions that can be found in the Bible, such as David being described by God as "A man after my own heart" or Jesus’ six word bio "Became flesh and dwelt among us".   These biographies or descriptions are so poignant and powerful; it’s amazing that they are all only six words long.

So what would be your six word bio or description?  

Here's mine,

"Never knew tomorrow was yesterdays, today"

"Never, who he appeared to be"
