Your life story in six words

[Govangirl]

There's a book called 'Brevity' by Larry Smith, a New York book editor. Tbe book was developed from a hugely successful online contest he created based on the premise that anybody could tell a story in just six words. Hemingway, when challenged to test the theory, came up with 'For Sale: Baby Shoes, never worn.'

Other examples in the book are:

'Born in luxury, matured in poverty'
'Always waiting for tomorrow ruined everything'
'Regretting never reaching my full potential'
'Worked all my days for nothing'

Anyway, I'm sure you get the message. Fancy a try? I guess I can start with 'I Loved, I Laughed, I Lived'
So come on, all you clever people, what can you come up with?
