Meme

I was tagged to do a pretty interesting meme....

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 ten dollars that he could sum up his life in six words. His words were- For Sale: baby shoes, never worn.

Here are the rules:
1. Write your own six word memoir.
2. Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you’d like.
3. Link to the person that tagged you in your post and to this original post if possible so we can track it as it travels across the blogosphere.
4 .Tag five more blogs with links.
5. And don’t forget to leave a comment on the tagged blogs with an invitation to play!

Okay, so.... I thought about this and thought about it. Being the sort of word nerd that I am, I love the idea of this, and had heard of it before. Here's what I came up with.

Strength I never knew I had.

In my life, in our marriage, during the extending deployment, at funerals, with my family...the list goes on. I'm emerging as the person I always wanted to be.

And now, I tag Shana.
