Hi, I'm Lindy

I started writing music in the 4th grade...

Helen is on the swing,

and Lindy is on the bar,

and they are going to start singing,

of what are they going to sing?

They are going to sing about flowers

They are going to sing about rain...

And I can't remember the rest. It was just a song that we started singing.

My first piano song "Reflections of Eternity" felt like a melody that came from a distant memory. It felt like I was remembering something from before I was even born.

That song was a gift.

And then I got a kick in the rear...

I was twenty-five. I had three children, all under the age of 4 and was given a priesthood blessing. I was told that I wasn't doing everything that I was supposed to be doing with my talents.

I call it my "kick-in-the-rear" blessing, because that's when I really started trying to write music.

It was not easy, and I gave up so many times. For a while I just wrote piano music. It was easier for me. I was terrible at writing words.

However, with help from above, I was able to finish my first song, and that day, after I sang my song, a lady who had listened told me, "Thanks for singing that song, I think I really needed to hear those words." Her words were life-changing. I had made a difference to someone. From then on, I was hooked. I couldn't wait to write my next song!

Over 300 songs later...

Why do I keep writing music?

Because I truly love it. For me, music is the doorway to feeling the spirit, feeling lighter, feeling happiness, joy and being able to process my feelings and emotions. When something really hard happens, and I know I need to stop thinking about it—I write a song; to remind me what I'm learning, so I don't keep learning the same things over and over again, and because I want to help other people feel the same hope and joy that I do.

If you’re curious about some of the ways I use music combined with the broader work I do with relationships, mindset, and hope, you can learn more at my website.
