Journal, Diary, & Blogging / All who wander...

I’d say ignore the people who say it’s boring… I was reading through the six word memoire submissions and I think this is one that stands out hte best.

ha, i ask myself this question all the time. but you really need to try and make this statement a bit more interesting. it feels like im just reading a six word sentence with nothing that stands out.

I like this as a saying or an inspirational thought-provoking piece.  But it doesn’t seem to work as a memoir since it doesn’t tell much about your life.  Great writing, just wrong context!

Yeah, but it’s not really a profound sentiment. Use this idea to build something more interesting.

It’s hard to build on 6 words, eh?

These things are so addicting.  It was sincere and from the heart.  The ones that seem to get the Smith Crowd excited usually contain just a pinch of irony.  It’s all a distraction, anyway.  I think we get to submit three.

Yeah, I feel that this doesn’t have the touch of ambiguity that the best ones do.

Very nice. Fitting too, because this is the question that I think everyone wants the answer to, but few are ever very certain of. Good luck!

A poignant, yet universal question.  I often find myself asking that at least twice a day, because you never know what’s right around the corner.  It’s terrifying, intimidating, but you just can’t help yourself.

I like the idea it conveys, but I gave it low marks for originality.  I’ve heard it before, so I don’t know that it’s fair to post here.  Good luck.

Do you think that it’s possible to find any combination of only six words that haven’t been used before?

Yes.  Try to google your 6 words.  If an exact match pops up, think of 6 other words.

No one knows where they’ll be tmw. That’s the beauty of mystery.

none of us know where we’ll be tomorrow really, though we have regulated lives with school or jobs and responsibilities, but anything can happen in an instant to change all that really. so what are you really trying to say? as a 6 word memoir it doesn’t really tell us much about your life in a nutshell but more your feeling of where you are in life.
