Lila Moonlight

I've started more writing (for my classes) and less art for now. I felt that my creative spirit needed a last name and I decided on Moonlight. (I guess I really am a hippie at heart.)

Anyway, you can still find me by going to Lila's Journey, but for today...I'm Lila Moonlight. Tomorrow, I might be Lila Sunbeam.

Affectionately,
Lila

Rebel With a Cause



Have you ever wondered what you'd name yourself if you got to choose? I'd choose Lila. It's a strong, old-fashioned Southern name. I was fortunate in that I got to grow up around a mom who was always questioning the way things were done. She always encouraged me to be who I was created to be. Mom was "Sandy" to her peers and "Ida Mae" to her family in Mississippi. I loved it! It showed me that if you didn't like something very much, you could change it.

Who says life has to be the way it appears to be? At least ask the questions. What makes me unique? What does God have in store for me? How can I serve others with joy? These questions matter.

Journey on, my friend,
Lila
