Honestly I am so sick of this attack on anyone that calls out mental illness. I refuse to be silent and I refuse to allow others to tell me what they think I should say. I have suffered for many years with mental illness. It’s not my fault y’all want to continue allowing ppl to step on you because you refuse to call it out for what it is. A turd is still a turd no matter how pretty you dress it up. You talk about compassion, you speak about being kind well allowing a mentally ill person to not get help for their delusion isn’t compassionate at all. You are part of the problem you are the reason many won’t seek the help they need. Afraid you might offend someone at least be honest with yourself. This isn’t about helping it’s about being afraid of what others will label you. Well I tell you as I sit here writing this you can call me whatever you like. I refuse to allow anyone to put me in a box or label on me. I am not afraid because God has my back. The fact that y’all can’t even call a mental illness for what is it makes me know for a fact y’all are on the wrong side of history. There is nothing wrong with being sick it’s about getting help and finding ways to deal with life in a healthy way. If you can’t speak that truth you are completely in the darkness and there is no helping you. Not because you can’t get help but because you have chosen to stay in the darkness. ~Emma~

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?
Their soul, and I know some might think well you can’t see someone soul. But I disagree with that you see some ppl shine completely different when they have a beautiful soul. It shines on the outside and you can clearly see it. In the way they do things, the way they speak you see something you cannot describe that makes them outstanding.
Today
May this day bring you wonderful new blessings. May this day be blessed with paths that will help you to grow. And may this be the day you find the strength to know you are worth it. ~Emma~
Posted a new video on YouTube
So I posted a video on YouTube and I want to make sure that I am extremely clear. This isn’t about hate this isn’t about anything other than mental health issues. I hope everyone seeks help. I am just highlighting the fact that changing the definition or changing the meaning doesn’t change the outcome. It doesn’t help to continue perpetrating your own narrative to fit in your box. People need to know to get help for any mental disorder. By changing reality you are not helping the situation, you are making it worse. Please I ask on behalf of the mental health community that we all stop allowing for this narrative to continue. It will only harm the community it keeps “saying” it is trying to save.
Live each moment
So many times we get struck in the wheel of life. Get up each morning, take a shower, go to work, eat dinner, spend time with the fam, go to sleep and repeat the next day. It is those times we forget easily that each moment in our life is precious. We aren’t promised tomorrow. So tonight I hope you kiss your love ones and remember today might be your last. So embrace the beauty, the little moments, the time you spend laughing and enjoying time with your loved ones. Each moment embrace with love and live each moment like your last. Have a beautiful night and a blessed week. ~Emma~
Thoughts at 2am
We are reminded once in a while to take a step back and remember no matter how bad things are for us they could always be worse. We think we suffer but true suffering like being tortured, beaten or even starving exists while we complain about little things that annoy us. In the end we should always be grateful for what we have, not what we don’t. Does it minimize our own pain I don’t believe so. I think by saying life is short just enjoy it, does belittle your own pain. But there is a grain of truth in the statement. Life is short and we don’t get much time here why spend it on things that cannot be changed. I do love with all that I am but sometimes some people and somethings are not worth the pain or even the time to care. Let it go it’s not worth chasing something not worth your time. Don’t waste time on things or people that aren’t worthy of being with you. Let it go. ~Emma~
Words to live by
Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do it. Take that as the motivation that you need to change your direction. Remember the greatest fight isn’t with others but yourself. Prove them all wrong! Don’t ever give up keep going. Keep believing in yourself.
Lose myself
What activities do you lose yourself in?
Writing and creating things, time just passes me by.
I don’t know why by Imagine Dragons
We could be strangers in the night
We could be passing in the shadows
We couldn’t be closer if we tried
When we’re caught in the headlights
We could be faces in the crowd
We could be passing in the shadows
Upping the risk of being found
When we’re caught in the headlights
Dangerous
Your love is always dangerous
And now I’m lost in us
We’re livin’ in a lying trust
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you
To do with you
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you
To do with you
I was a faking alibi
Trading the truth in for a lie, oh
We were the essence of desire
And we’re caught in the headlights
Dangerous
Your love is always dangerous
And now I’m lost in us
We’re livin’ in a lying trust
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you
To do with you
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you
To do with you (I don’t know why)
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you (I don’t know)
To do with you (I don’t know why)
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you
To do with you
That you love me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me (dangerous)
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me (your love is always dangerous)
Tell me that you love me
I don’t know why
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you (I don’t know)
To do with you (I don’t know why)
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you (do with, do with, do with)
To do with you (I don’t know why)
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you (I don’t know)
To do with you (I don’t know why)
I don’t know why, but I guess it’s got something to do with you
To do with you
Mood right now: Follow you by Imagine Dragons
You know I got your number, number all night
I’m always on your team, I got your back, alright
Taking those, taking those losses if it treats you right
I wanna put you into the spotlight
If the world would only know what you’ve been holding back
Heart attacks every night
Oh, you know it’s not right
I will follow you way down wherever you may go
I’ll follow you way down to your deepest low
I’ll always be around wherever life takes you
You know I’ll follow you
Call you up, you’ve been crying, crying all night
You’re only disappointed in yourself, alright
Taking those, taking those losses if it treats you right
I wanna take you into the sunlight
If the world would only know what you’ve been holding back
Heart attacks every night
Oh, you know it’s not right
I will follow you way down wherever you may go
I’ll follow you way down to your deepest low
I’ll always be around wherever life takes you
You know I’ll follow you
La-da-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da, you know I’ll follow you
La-da-da-da-da-da, wherever life takes you
You know I’ll follow you
You’re not the type to give yourself enough love
She live her life, hand in a tight glove
I wish that I could fix it, I could fix it for you
But instead I’ll be right here comin’ through
(Right here coming through)
I will follow you way down wherever you may go (I’ll follow you)
I’ll follow you way down to your deepest low
I’ll always be around wherever life takes you (I’ll follow you)
You know I’ll follow you
La-da-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da, you know I’ll follow you
La-da-da-da-da-da, wherever life takes you
You know I’ll follow you
