Six Word Memoir

I've been tagged by Amanda…she’s is such a sweet and caring nestie who’s strength is getting her through her loss. She’s been such a wonderful presence on support boards and always had some of the kindest words to say. I wish her all the best!

This tag is tough for me because I always have so much to say…but the tag is to write a six word memoir... a Meme. As described in Amanda's blog... "The Meme" originated over an idea that was prompted by the book written by Larry Smith and Rachel Fershleiser, Not Quite What I was planning: Six Word Memoirs by Writers Famous and Obscure. It's a compilation based on the story that Hemingway once bet $10 that he could sum up his life in six words. His were- "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn."

Here goes...
I’ve always felt that I’m that 1%. You know how stuff always seems to happen to other people? I’ve always felt like one of those other people. Now, that comes with advantages and disadvantages. You may be the 1% that wins…but when you lose, you lose big. I’d like to think somehow it all balances out and you’ll go crazy trying to predetermine future plans or live your life according to standards.

I’ve accepted life isn’t fair…but it only seems that way for a while...stick it out, it's worth it.

Of course I had trouble with this and I’m trying to stick to only six words…but how about two sets...I’m indecisive I know!

Enjoy the ride, it gets better.
