My name is Lynn and I love to laugh. I feel like that's the fastest way to my heart….humor and great food of course but humor takes the cup.
I have been writing since I was about 14. It just felt like the best way to articulate what and how I felt because I did not have a lot of friends growing up. I grew up around people who were a lot older than me.
Writing about my experiences and how I felt in the moment in one way or another helped me heal...it was therapeutic. The older I got, the more I realized that my story needed to be told but not in the dark way that my thoughts were at the time. My writing was usually sad and angry.
But then something amazing happened. In my early 20’s, I started to open up more and give more of myself to my family and those around me. This decision was great, life changing in fact.
Not all the moves I made were right but at least it opened me up to how I should perceive myself. I began to discover what I like, what I love and what I am passionate about. A new beginning so to speak.
So when I was required to start blogging by the course I'm currently doing, it was a no brainer really! It was the right time to share my thoughts with the world. The goal for this blog is to share my life, what has worked and not worked so far, teachable moments and the steps I have taken to fix the crown on my head. Royalty is what I am. I am a daughter of the Most High King.
I chose the name Water Lily because of what it symbolizes;
These flowers are said to be common symbols of delight, new spirit, new beginnings, new life, rebirth, wellness, hope and happiness in several ancient cultures. These are things that I need for my life to look the way I envision it to be with the Help of God.
This in turn is what I hope to bring into the world around me and everyone who reads my content. There is hope, happiness, wellness and a new life in Christ Jesus, my firm foundation in a world that is full of storms.
I hope you get to experience this through at least one of my pieces. I look forward to growing with you.
All my love,
Lynn
