Hi, I'm Lily, and I'm happy you're here :)) 

​

I started my first diary when I was 8 years old. A leader in my church recommended it, and I loved reading my Great Grandma's journals!! So why not, right? 

​

I started writing about my day-to-day life: my older brothers picking on me, my love for dance, my crushes... and I especially loved writing fantasy. I still have all of my short stories tucked into a corner somewhere ;) 

​

But as I grew up, those fantasy writings slowly turned to real life. Little Lily always wanted to grow up quick, and she did... just not in the way she expected! Writing quickly became my safe haven as active trauma and responsibility became my reality. My imaginative friends turned into the overwhelming emotions that I didn't know what to do with, so I wrote them down.

I still do! 

Through putting pen to paper, I learned that words heal. 

Writing, heals. 

Leaving the energy of my emotions on paper became a form of therapy. 

 

Now here I am, 13 years later, and I have a lifetime of words, experiences, life lessons, beliefs, and ever-changing realities written down! 

All of which emulate who I am perfectly. 

​

My words and experiences are a testament that it is possible to make it through your hardest days. It is possible to come out

of those experiences as a stronger, smarter, more resilient human being. 

​

I have an entire lifetime of words, experiences, life lessons, beliefs, and ever-changing realities… all that deserve to be honored. 

​

So here I am, beginning to share those words with you. 

​

Thank you for being here, and welcome to my story… 

one that’s only just begun ;) 

​

Xoxo, Lil
