Hello, can you help me answer this riddle (serious answer only), they said it consists of 7 letters:

i am spun and i am told,
i have lived since days of old,
i am truth and i am lie,
i am imagination and real life,
i inspire and i terrify,
i can disheartened and delight,
i am a journey, maybe life,
for you to enjoy, for you to write.
what am i?
