Six word memoir

This week at our staff meeting, Mr. Lewis gave us an article that describe the book Not Quite What I Was Planning: Six-Word Memoirs by Writers Famous and Obscure by Smith Magazine. The book is a collection of six word phrases that describe specific peoples' lives, jobs, beliefs, accomplishments, etc. He then asked us to come up with a six-word memoir for ourselves. It was difficult, but I did it, although I have to give some credit to a speaker I heard at a conference. Some of my memoir is his idea.

Laugh. Learn. Leave a Legacy. Teach.

Sound about right for me?? Give it a try and publish it on the blog for others to respond to.
