Her Own Hero

Little girls read stories and hold expectations for a fairytale life.
Little girls are strong and know what they will accomplish when they are old enough.
Little girls dream big and then sit back to watch them get crushed.
Little girls see their mum's suffer and tackle the oppressive reality of life.

As women, little girls begin to tackle that difficult and tiresome journey.
As women, little girls begin searching for a way to live, survive and outsmart those who doubt them.
As women, little girls find their independence so that they can start to build their own empire.
and as women, little girls begin to realise that the only way to survive in this world, is to be her own hero.
