Em dic Roser Rovira i visc a Boston.
Crec que la vellesa és una època que val la pena viure.
Per això escric aquest blog. Per qüestionar estereotips, per mostrar que fer-se gran és un regal, per explicar la meva vellesa i la d’altres persones que també es volen explicar, reivindicar, presumir, gaudir, fer-se entendre.
Tinc més de cinquanta anys. I no vull que els meus cinquanta siguin els nous quaranta. Vull els meus cinquanta meus i ben meus, carregats d’experiències i de confiança, de saber el que vull i d’amistats forjades amb temps.

My name is Roser Rovira, and I live in Boston Massachusetts
I believe that growing old is something worth appreciating.
That’s why I write this blog. To question stereotypes, to show that growing old is a gift, to explain my experience growing old and other peoples experiences that also want to be shown, to be seen, to be proud, to enjoy, and to be understood.
I’m over 50 years old. And I don’t want my 50s to be the new 40s. I’m proud of my 50 years, full of experiences and confidence, knowing what I want and with bonds forged across the years.
Als vint, volia curar el càncer.
Als trenta, volia una casa amb jardí.
Als quaranta vaig anar a viure a l’estranger.
Amb cinquanta he canviat de feina, estic aprenent cada dia, i aporto també el meu coneixement.
I encara no tinc decidit què vull ser quan sigui gran. De moment, escriptora! Per què escric contes sobre la gent gran? Llegiu

When I was 20 years old, I wanted to cure cancer.
When I was 30 years old, I wanted a house with a garden
When I was 40 years old I came to America.
At 50 years, i have changed jobs, I am learning every day, and I carry my knowledge with me.
And I still have no idea what I want to be when I am older. Right now, I want to be a writer! Why do I write books about old people? Read “Children’s Books about Ageism? Meet Roser Rovira up above” to find out.
