Welcome to To read would be an awfully big adventure

Hello I'm Heather and I've started this blog because I never know what I think until I read what I say, is anyone else like this? My head feels like I have a whole dictionary crammed inside and all the words are shouting over each other desperate to be heard. I always have to pull out my notebook or log on to my laptop and write down what my thoughts are trying to say, I even hear myself arguing with them saying "All right one at a time" or "Calm down you will get your turn" Is that strange?

The only time I feel my thoughts calm down is when I'm reading, as soon as I open a book they settle down like children when it's story time so caught up in what's happening in the book they forget what it was they were trying to say. So this is my blog a place where my thoughts can run free like they do through the pages of a book, I named this blog after my favourite book Peter Pan it was the first book I remembering reading and every time I read it what I now see isn't just the story of the boy who wouldn't grow up and his adventures but a younger version of me, a little girl reading under the covers with a torch dreaming of the day Peter would come knocking on her window and teach her to fly, that little girl is caught in the pages of the book always off having adventures. I hope one day that when I'm older I will see my now 21 year old self in the book and that I will continue to see younger versions of me as I get older till I'm in my nineties and sitting in a rocking chair cause even then I won't have grown up. I will always be the little girl under the covers dreaming of the day Peter takes me to Neverland.

So this was my first post I hoped you liked it and I hope to be posting at least once a week if you have any suggestions about what you would like me to blog about, please feel free to leave me a comment.

Heather
