AstonishinglyPoetic says,

Thats great thanks for all the love

Dhani says,

In my view, if the individual is not engaging, then he's not changing....

AstonishinglyPoetic says,

@Dhani well that's not necessarily true.. For Example. On the outside you can wear a smile making it seem like everything is now ok but, on the inside you are really still in the same unhappy place as before so your inside is not engaging in change like your outside apperience is.

Loon says,

like the rhythm of your words

Dhani says,

@POET Sorry, but your statement makes no sense to me. Yes, we all can mask our unhappiness with a fake smile, which doesn't always fool all the people all the time.

If you want to talk of change, and not be superficial, then we're talking about INNER change. (Phony smiles are not 'change'.)

No memoirist is an island, so his or her six words MUST be engaging or they're not worth the cyberspace they're typed into..

AstonishinglyPoetic says,

Well my friend your entitled to your opinion im sorry you feel that way about my six words but in my opinion my six words made more sense then your 60plus word comment because frankly i dont care too much about your opinion but my goal isnt to argue and i do still thank you for the time you spent reading and commenting on my, "worthless" memoir, Have an awesome life and may your memoires be better then your character

AstonishinglyPoetic says,

@Loon thank you very much

oopsalittle says,

Really like this - congrats on MOTD!

AstonishinglyPoetic says,

@Oops thank you very much

Dhani says,

Astonishingly WELL SAID! I mean no harm, mate. It's obvious, looking above, your memoir is 'engaging'. That's my criteria for a 'good' memoir ('good' & 'bad', of course being relative terms). Peace.

Dhani says,

(I never said your memoir was 'worthless'.)

AstonishinglyPoetic says,

@Dhani maybe i miss understood but again thanks for reading my six words
