Is This a Trick Question?

Wiwohka

It would make more sense if the prompt asked me what I would title an auto biography… how on earth would I know what somebody else might write about me, therefore knowing what they might be inclined to use as an appropriate title?

If there was a biography about you, what would the title be?

Not to be disrespectful towards someone writing about my life other than myself, but currently, there isn’t anyone close enough to know what might be written. I have no more than three people that I consider even remotely familiar enough to write about my life, none of which are writers. 

I did, in fact, write my own story down for others to read, but I’m still not sure why. Nobody that I thought would read it, ever took the time or made the effort to read it! My own biological sister rejected my words before she ever got past the introduction… not joking!

If my own sister, as well as my children seem averse to giving me any grace, at all… well, perhaps the writing was more for me than it was for anyone else.

I imagine that if anyone wrote of me, it might only be things under the title of

She Wore a Scarlet Letter, or Sins of Her Past, or maybe The Unlovable

Thank goodness that I don’t buy into others opinions of me any longer, but rather, I look upon the book of another, in whose pages I seem to keep finding entry after entry about my very life. As it happens, the book has already been written and has been in circulation for many many years. Due to the reputation this book holds, and as I know the author pretty well, I wouldn’t dream of suggesting we change the title that graces its’ cover.

By now you have most likely guessed the name of this publication, but just to ensure you and I are on the same page here, the title of the book is called The Holy Bible. When I asked the author if I could share the title of His work, He was happy that I should do so… suggesting that anyone wishing to find their life written into this book, might feel free to use this title for their prompt answer, as well.

Here, have a cookie…

  3. Hm… I have had numerous requests for my life’s story, and I always answer; “I’m still living it.” I, like you, also find my story within the Word of God, and it comforts me to know I am in good company with other sinners who are saved by the Grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. Love you, my sister. ❤

    1. I have most of it up in the lobby, in audio form, but my headphones died so I cant record the last three chapters… the whole thing is in the archives, however, but it is a pain in the rear to go back and try to read in order… hugs

  8. Yeah, if my family wrote my story, I’m sure I’d be the villain. But that’s okay, I’m perfectly happy being the villain in their story if it makes them feel better. I’m the protagonist in mine. Not the hero, because I know where I went wrong, but not nearly as evil as some people think I am. ^_^ All that to say, I totally understand. Hugs.
