One Thousand Thoughts in Five Words Or Less
Why Five Words or Less? I woke up one morning with the words "to like, to want, is" in my head. I don't know where the phrase came from or why it was there, but I wrote it down. And then other thoughts came and I wrote them down. And after twenty or so, I noticed they were all five words or less. You'd be surprised at what you can express with such an economy of words: "I will love you forever". "One nation, under God, indivisible". "Cement leads a hard life". I kept going and now, here they are - one thousand thoughts in five words or less. Some are whimsical, some are profound, some are heartfelt, some are pure nonsense and some may stir deep emotion. Some you may have even said yourself more than once without realizing they're five words or less. Oh, and if a thousand isn't enough, I've left some blank pages at the end of the book for you to include your own thoughts, in five words or less...."think about it, won't you?"
