Music stopped me from dying young, a poignant life story

Remember the Six-Word Life Story query. Telling yours in six words. No more. No less.

I posed the query on LinkedIn as well as Facebook with phenomenal results (90 responses from LinkedIn alone). I already submitted mine for SMITH Magazine's next six-word memoir book.

Here are the global results of my Six-Word query from the U.S., Ukraine, Chile, France, etc.

I selected my Top Ten and the winner IMO is:

Thanks, Malcolm, for sharing!

Can you tell your life story in 6 words?

Everyone has a story. Can you tell yours in six words? No more. No less.

I added mine. I've added the question to LinkedIn as well and will post some of the best here. What an overwhelming response thus far!
