A lot of people I know have told me they don't really like Oprah. I hate that I just kinda took on their opinions. As I've paid a little more attention to her, I like some of the stuff she says. Your last post reminded of this article that I read the other day. It captures people writing a memoir in six words. Here are some of my favorites:
"FAT. thin. FAT. thin. FAT. thin." --Julia Chambers, 33
"I have time to fix this." --Taneika Head, 26
"Still fit into high school earrings." --Kimberly Kilroy, 53
"Old too soon. Smart too late." --Ibis Kramer, 70
"I live my best life NOW." --Terrie Ten Eyck, 56
"Recipe for failure. Changed my ingredients." --Antonee Boykin, 30
"Every problem has a creative solution." --Donna Karan, 63, fashion designer
"Former doc now wears art smock." --Amy Harrison, 35
"I raised a United States Marine." --Rosane Carey, 55
"Might as well eat that cookie." --Paula Deen, 65, chef
And there are more. In trying to find pictures of these, I discovered that it's actually a thing that's been around for quite a while (just when I was trying to make Oprah look good, I find out it was someone else's idea...)
"My idea of success? Creating joy." --Shae Bennett, 19
I like these.
