I want to be an adventurer,
          	 but I'm afraid I'll get hurt.
          	 I want to be a princess,
          	 but that just can't happen.
          	 I want to do this, and I want do that,
          	 I want to be everything in the world,
          	 but people tell me that's impossible,
          	 I'll prove them wrong,
          	 with a pen and a paper.
          	 I'll adventure, and I'll rule,
          	 I do anything my heart desires,
          	 because my imagination will let me do anything
          	 and can take me to any place. 
          	That is what it means to be a writer.

@allyrb Chronologically and biologically I am fifteen, though when it comes to maturity I could be three years old to an one thousand year old lady. I like to live my life like I am forever young, but when time comes, I am more wise than some people triple my age. I am technically young but that does not mean I am ignorant. I haven't  actually read any of those but I'll check them out, thanks. :D

@lurkingcat and how old are you?  You are much more mature than many people I have talked to.  Have you read Night, Dawn, and Day, all by Elie Wiesel?  Or Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury?  I highly recommend them.  They stirred up a lot of dormant thoughts I once had and really got me thinking.  Even if you don't read Elie's books, just look up some of his quotes.

@allyrb Sometimes it's best to write so you're heard and others can open their eyes and see the what they hadn't seen. Sometimes making other people think can start a revolution, you may not get credited for it, but nothing new can happen with out people who sit and think. I'm a thinker, and I write down my thoughts to inspire others to do what's right; do what they believe in, be them, take a jump, fight for those who cannot and plain old spreading kindness. Words are stronger than we think, as well as actions, the tiniest things could change the world.

@allyrb *shrugs* I have deep thoughts that wonder through many things most people can't see. As people are running for their goals I sit at the starting line pondering why life sets us in a world of beauty if we are too busy running to admire the sight, the feel, the scent and even the sound? So yea, I was in one of my deep thoughts again. (I love the word epiphany! Like how I love the word oxymoron!)

Sometimes you just feel like you could have been a million things but fear of failure, judgement and side effects holds you back. Sometimes it's better to do things before you can ask what if? Because some of the best things are the riskiest and if we don't take risks we'll never know if we could be in  a better situation.
