Always ask people, especially the little people in your world, what their dreams are. What do you want to do when you grow up?
In fact, ask, what are your dreams, what do you want to do when you grow up, get up, get off your arse and/or, sometimes, even when you have given up, of every adult who will answer.
Why?
I think the answers will amaze you! Floor you! Challenge you! Inspire you!
And.....
Every now and again, like me, you just might find yourself, seated beneath a tree, with a 5 year old warrior princess.
This little warrior, will whisper, this is where I write. Where I write my stories.
A few more questions later we uncovered that just like me, she wants to write stories about her friends, about real people.
Not magical, mythical, fiction, NO! A very clear and determined response. No fear, no hesitation. Why! Anything is possible!
Am I right or should I mention 2020?
I looked that little legend in the eyes and we made each other a pinky promise. I'd start writing, today. I'd be a brave warrior princess just like her!
In the meantime, she will keep writing stories in her special place.
Then maybe, just maybe, one day we will meet each other again, in a new way; on a page.
So thats the why. Why the blog. Why the now. Why the name.
Roar like a warrior - Sometimes it needs to be soft and gentle, just like a sweet little ones dreams, being spoken into life!
