Preface
Dear Diary,
My name is Lillian Salvatore, my mother gifted me this journal on my 16th birthday and asked me to continue the family tradition on penning down thoughts and all the good memories as well as the downs of my life. She said her mother gave her a journal, who got a journal from her mother on their respective birthdays. This journal will be my best friend and even after some 30 years when I look back at what I have written it will be like reliving my life, page by page.
So, I guess this is how my story begins.
Lillian
I close my journal and tucked it under my pillow and closed my eyes, drifting into a soundless sleep to the sound of rain softly tapping on my window.
