hello

my name is dania shammah. i have been mother-ing and wife-ing for twenty three years now and, in the process, i have also raised myself.

as a lover of words and all things "quilty" my desire here is to contribute the insignificant and the miraculous of my life experience in the hope that you will find some kinship, encouragement or solace on this journey - whichever it is you may need in this moment. 

the choice of lowercase letters only is to help me remember that i am a tiny particule in this vast universe. 

writing is how i make sense of the world around me and when inspiration strikes you will also find me quilting. 

consistency is hard for me, but sincerity comes easily. welcome to this open space.
