    I thank everyone who has joined thus far.
    I wouldn't really feel strongly to any of those possible answers above, I felt it reflected the idea of "the hardship of living" more powerful than anything else.

    Here's my six-words:
    Yesterday: Memory, Today: Injury, Tomorrow: Hope

    Real or imaginary, does it matter?
    The Moments of Dominion
    That happen on the Soul
    And leave it with a Discontent
    Too exquisite — to tell —
