I'm going through an interesting and uncomfortable crisis at the moment. But in all honesty, when am I not. And today, I want people to know. At least I think I do. I recognize within myself that there is quite a dichotomous nature to my personality that in recent years I am actively working to …
Home Is Where The Heart Is
And to that, my first instinct has always been to say "Bullshit." For some people, yes, I will concede that home is absolutely where they make it. It's not about the painted, wooden structure that contains their belongings and where they usually rest their head at night. Home is about where their family is, where …
that’s enough
The first thought I had when I woke up this morning was that I needed to go to the hospital. And fast. My heart had been racing since the night before and although I thought simply forcing myself to sleep would be the cure-all answer, I learned I was sadly mistaken. I woke up in …
This One’s for All My Fellow Empaths Out There
Put your emotions in the air and wave em like you just don't care (but you probably do care, a lot, cause you're an empath) I wish there was an option to turn off our emotions just for a day. Don't you? Okay, maybe not a day. Perhaps just an hour. A short respite away …

My Attempt At a Lesson in Physics
Some days, I have the overwhelming desire to come face to face with the universe and give it a big "F**K YOU." Some days, I am tired. I am exhausted at the thought of growing, learning yet another lesson, and being told that patience is a virtue. Some days, I just want to lay on …
For Better or For Worse
"When people get married, they take a vow to honor their partner all of the days of their life. For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, until death do them part" To preface: this is something I wrote about 4 years ago when I was in a very different place. …
Thoughts From a Parking Lot on a Tuesday
I can’t find my grey, 2010 Toyota Corolla. This isn’t the first time this has happened, but often it’s because I’ve lost it in a parking lot or it’s been mysteriously towed by the scum of the earth tow truck companies who have a personal vendetta against small blondes like myself. Now this time it’s …
This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things
The trials and tribulations of growing up in a generation that has forgotten the meaning of the word "patience" You know one thing I find really sad about this generation? Everyone is so afraid to want nice things for themselves. In my experience, it seems to stem from this weird karmic pattern where you express …
Cleaning Out the Mess
getting rid of my metaphorical trash one piece at a time ❤ My writing is something I am incredibly proud of. It is one thing in my life that I am insanely critical of because I see the potential for it to be so much more more than simply great. Why would I show something …
We love a formal introduction
Hi World! It's me, Emma 🙂 A lot of times people are interested to find out that I love to write. It took many people in my life, even close family members, by surprise when I told them I was switching my major to journalism. Broadcast - ya that makes sense, sometimes I don't shut …
