Six Word Memoir

Everything will get better with time.

Like most young teenagers taking on the journey of life we face many trials and tribulations. As we grow we find ourselves becoming our worst critiques, allowing for outsiders input to drastically affect the things we do and the way we think. Learning to love myself and forgive those who have wronged me has become a huge part of how I was able to find myself in depths of darkness. I use to remind myself in times of sadness, frustration, or anger that with time everything always gets better, just remember a time you thought your world was crumbling right in front of your eyes and your issue was unescapable, but then things got better the load got lighter and you were able to learn from what was once your biggest issue.

Ive learned to find happiness and strength in the little things. By reminding myself that things get better with time issues that could’ve possible drastically affected my emotions are seen as life lessons and subtle bumps in the road on my journey through life. Accept the good and the bad and keep on moving because things truly do get better.

  1. This six word memoir is so simple and to the point yet so powerful. It’s relatable. I feel like everyone can feel for this statement especially if they are having trouble with where they are now or just are working towards something that seems so far and long. It’s a positive statement in a time of uncertainty. I like how you mentioned having overcome bigger issues in the past – although sometimes painful to remember, it is important to remember and reflect on those times and how you grew from them and became stronger in result. I’m glad you have learned to find some peace with where you are and how everything is on the grand scale.

  2. Nice post, Gianni.
    I have also found that no matter how catastrophic things seem at the moment, my sense of catastrophe changes and I learn from the disappointments, the losses, and the challenges. Those are the things that are making me who I am.

  3. I really resonated with your six word memoir Gianni, it is very simple but very powerful. I am that person that gets way too much in their head and begins to feel like I can never recover from what I’m going through, but I always do. It’s a very simple thing to do but it makes such a great impact. I was going through a very hard time during my freshman year at SDSU and when I felt like I was backed into a corner and my problems would never be solved, my boyfriend helped me understand that things will always get better. The idea that there will always be light at the end of the tunnel was a hard concept for me to fully grasp but it is one that I desperately needed to if I ever wanted to get myself into a better headspace. Now two years later, I have nearly completely embraced the mentality that everything will get better with time, because it’s true and it is something I constantly need to remind myself.

  4. Hi Gianni,
    I really enjoyed readying your blog and I felt like I can relate to your story. When I first starting taking Computer Science class, I felt like I do not belong here and this place is full of smart people and I just cannot function here. Even in my programming class, I was so close to drop and accept the truth that I will never be like those people.

    However, after seeking help from teachers and students, started the same mentality you referred to in your blog. I thought to myself that things will get better and I just need to fight though this.

    As of today, I am a junior computer science major whose very passionate about this filed and very grateful that I made the right choice,
