So I’ve been tagged by Derek in a meme called six words memoir. Gosh, it seemed so long ago since I was tagged in a meme, or any “community project” for that matter, that clearly put my presence (or the lack thereof) on the web in perspective. Hence, I’ve to thank Derek for tagging me and have spent a considerable amount of time thinking about this meme.

I’m not the creative type who can spout quotable quotes like some poets or famous speakers can in a jiffy. I was tempted to be clichéd and go with famous advertising slogans like Just Do It or Impossible Is Nothing, or something to that effect, for my six words memoir.

To use those would have been a great injustice and disrespect towards Derek. I searched deep inside my heart and finally came up with a six word sentence that closely mirrored my life – past, present and future.

Seize the moment, make everyday count!This sentence stamp from the insecurities and guilt that I felt, of being trapped in a situation that disable me to give my best in everything I do. For instance, I feel guilty for the fact that I can’t give my full attention to my kids as I’ve to work on a full-time job and also blog part-time as a hobby. I am damn afraid that I would miss their growing up years, and to be a guiding beacon in their lives.

Hence, I remind myself everyday that life is short, make everyday count. Don’t keep living in the past or get too paranoid about the future, enjoy the present and make every moment count!

Now it is your turn, here are the rules:

• Write your own six word memoir.

• Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you want.

• Link to the person who tagged you in your post.

• Tag at least five more blogs.

• Leave a comment on the tagged blogs with an invitation to play.

I realized many bloggers had put off doing meme, nevertheless, the five friends that I am going to tag are:

Simon at YeePage dot com
Pearl at Fresh Perspective
Tay at Super Blogging Tips
Lori at Blogging Cents
