The Storyteller

This is a story about an ordinary girl who loved stories, and who came to love telling them. When she was a small child, stories were a way for her to escape when her own story was less than ideal. Back then, they helped her to hold hope for her future, to dream of possibilities and a way of dreaming up exciting and incredible goals to work towards. She could be a dancer, an actress, a famous artist perhaps. The possibilities were endless. In her head she always imagined that even though things were difficult right now, there would be a happy ending to her story. There would be - she believed this with all of her heart.
