What was your favorite subject in school?
I think I love learning about history. Especially if you have a good history teacher that always makes it fun. Now I will say when I went back to college to finish getting my degree history has changed. It’s not that history has changed but the way the history is taught had changed. You could see while the professor would speak he wasn’t just teaching the class it was about inserting his own political beliefs while teaching about history.

Does that make me garbage, or not intelligent?
Does that make me a cult member?
Does that make me crazy?
Or does that make me a person that believes in freedom?
What I can say is I am not telling you how to live your life. Even if I think you are stupid and dumb I would never tell you are not allowed to be that way. Because I believe in freedom. Freedom comes at a cost. Make sure to vote this November 5! This election is a fight against corruption and for the freedom of this Country. Your vote counts!
The twins came by, being around them always makes me happy. I will never understand how women can say they will be happy without having kids. I mean I know I have no choice in the matter and many women face that reality every day. But for those that actively seek to not have kids I will never understand.
I remember when the twins were born what it was like holding them. Having them napping on top of me was the best feeling in the world. Even watching them grow up is a joy. When they took their first steps to talking, they are some of the best memories I have.
For me it’s even better because I don’t remember my past. So when the twins were born it was like the first time I got to hold my niece or nephew. Now that isn’t true because I have an older niece but the truth is I don’t remember the memories with her.
Though I don’t remember them I know she was extremely important to me. I have heard stories of how close we were but the illness took that all from me.
Being with the twins even for an hour or two reminds me each day is precious. We may never get another chance to enjoy being around the ones we love. Life is extremely short and goes by so fast. The best moments are just being able to enjoy sharing silly moments with each other.
Even if that’s trying on different wigs or playing GTA, for me those are the best moments. ~Emma~
What alternative career paths have you considered or are interested in?
I am a writer, dog sitter and content creator. So I think I have chosen my alternative career. I once worked in the business world and now I get to do what I want. I don’t think there is anything better than that.
If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to?
My parents so they can buy their dream home. One with big yard, big kitchen and a big wraparound porch for them to enjoy with a swing.
When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?
I guess it would depend on what I feel true success looks like. For instance I believe successful for me would be to have gotten married, had kids, raised those kids, taking care of my parents and family while also having a good strong relationship with my husband and God. Now have I gotten that no. But I have been successful in overcoming the obstacles that were in my way of life. I know many people that are successful in different areas but for me one person does not come to mind because my view of “success” no one has reached.
I am going to get my nails done today. I am attending a costume party later in the week. Today I woke up knowing I was just in one of my moods. I am grateful to God that today I get to get up, but it doesn’t change the feeling of being in one of those moods. I won’t dwell in the feeling and I will still force myself to go get my nails done. But I hate the days I wake up this moody. Just one of those days. 🤷♀️
When you are surrounded by people that are constantly shutting you down maybe you need space from them. If they can’t accept you the way you are, they don’t deserve you. Walk away for your own mental health. Staying positive and having negative experiences isn’t good. So just walk away from them. Even if they are family. Simply learn to keep space and learn to not engage. Hopefully the situation will get better with you learning to just walk away from them.

I searched for love when the night came and it closed in
I was alone, but You found me where I was hiding
And now I’ll never ever be the same
It was the sweetest voice that called my name, saying
You’re not alone for I am here
Let me wipe away your every fear
My love, I’ve never left your side
I have seen you through the darkest night
And I’m the One who’s loved you all your life
All your life
You cry yourself to sleep
‘Cause the hurt is real and the pain cuts deep
All hope seems lost with heartache your closest friend
And everyone else long gone
You’ve had to face the music on your own
But there is a sweeter song that calls you home, saying
You’re not alone for I am here
Let me wipe away your every tear
My love, I’ve never left your side
I have seen you through the darkest night
And I’m the One who’s loved you all your life
All your life
Faithful and true forever
My love will carry you
You’re not alone for I, I am here
Let me wipe away your every fear
My love, I’ve never left your side
I have seen you through the darkest night
Your darkest night
And I’m the One who’s loved you all your life
All your life
So today I went to doctor to get my foot checked. Not only is there a tear in a ligament but I also have a deep sprain in one of the ligaments that are “strongest” ones in the foot. I am going to have to do therapy and walk with the stupid foot corset till it gets better.
It’s funny since I was young I have always been accident prone. I have always blamed Satan 🤣. I always would say “damn Satan is really trying to take me out” not just take me out but with walls, floors, kitchen island, chairs, stairs, doors, sidewalks, my cat. It’s endless the ways he has tried.
I laugh about it now but in reality I have always felt that way. Still I am grateful that regardless of all the “accidents” I have had I am still alive to write this blog. Not only alive but grateful for each and every scar that I have gotten on this journey called life.
We must always be grateful for the good and bad moments in life. It’s through the bad moments we learn to cherish the good moments even more. So even though I will end up in therapy for my foot, hopefully I will learn to tolerate the pain and get through each moment smiling.
For each day we wake up is a good day. ~Emma~
