We'll be brief: Hemingway once wrote a story in just six words ("For sale: baby shoes, never worn.") and is said to have called it his best work.
Whole books have been published of memoirs written by average people like you and I - written in six words.
So, I thought it would be fun to have our thread of these six word memoirs. And, I thought it would be fun if we updated it every six months or so. This would allow us to have sort of a collaborative journal of snapshots of our lives.
Here's mine:
Blundered often. Striving to overcome sins.
Now remember, these must be EXACTLY six words. No more. No less. 
I'll let you all decide how contractions count.
