Biographers Day is today. Who would you like to write or read a biography about?

This is the prompt for today from DSP. This is an interesting thought as there are so many people I could think of. Certainly not the politicians of the country. I would like to write the biography of a person who has had to fight adversity to survive - maybe someone with a disability who has achieved so much in their personal lives.

Recently I heard a talk by a man whose wife had recently died of motor neurone disease. In her last months her and her husband set up a Foundation to raise funds to provide specialised transport for people such as herself. A biography of her fight for live is one I would like to write.

Winter is approaching here in Western Australia and my Zygo Cactus are flowering. I am taking many photos to try to get the perfect photo. Here are two I took today.

Being a special ed teacher, I would love to read this biography! I'm sorry you have winter arriving because I'm so excited that summer is finally getting here in South Caroina! lol

Sounds like such an inspiring story that would be!
