Mermaid-Viking

I am

I am a girl
I am a gamer
I am NOT a girl gamer
I am just a gamer
I am a mountain biker
I am a swimmer
I am a soccer player
I am a basketball player
I am a writer
I am a poet
I am an author
I am a circus proformer
I am part of a choir
I am a traveler
I am a trail runner
I am a reader
I am a sister
I am a daughter
I am a friend
I am a listener
I am a companion
I am many more things
But most importantly... I am ME

    I love "I am NOT a girl gamer
    I am just a gamer" It feels so powerful.
