I have no idea how blogging works. I don't even know if people will find my blogspot. But what I do know is that I love writing, and having an account where you can share your thoughts doesn't seem like a bad idea at all. So I'll start in the way I know how; I'll tell you a story.
I came from a family of readers and writers. We have so many books at home that my aunt is actually thinking about having our third landing renovated into a library. (How cool is that?!) My Aunt is a doctor, but she was a writer first. My cousin is taking AB Development Communication. My other cousins read a lot as well. My Mom read the whole Harry Potter Series. My Dad loves Brandon Mull. My siblings, a 12 year old boy and an 8 year old girl, already have their own shelves. I have my own collection too. I love reading so much that it actually inspired me to start writing as well.
My Mom used to tell me bedtime stories. Some of those stories were read from fairy tale books, but most were made from her own imagination. My Mom is a huge part of why I read and write today, but I never told her that. I don't think I'll ever will. (HAHA) But if it wasn't for her late night stories, I would never have had the chance to explore my own imagination. I would never have had the chance to explore the whole world and the worlds beyond it.
My first book, or at least the one I remember, was a Bible for kids. That book introduced me deeper to my faith. It's part of the foundation of the rock that I stand on today. I still have it, that book. I passed it down to my younger siblings.
Now, I'm almost eighteen. I have read so many books and I have written so many stories. But the ones that started my journey will be forever kept in my heart. I read, I write. It's a part of who I am. I write to express, not to impress.
If anyone is reading this, I hope you liked my first entry. I created this blogspot not only to share my thoughts, my journey, but also to share my faith. My Savior. My God who gave me this gift. I hope to touch your life, and share with you the good news of Salvation.
Have a good day. May the Lord bless you, and may His face shine upon you. :D
xoxo Eliana
