Today is a new day.
Its a new day in a new year in my new life.
I am trying to make the most out of it, trying to make myself see that I can change- grow. It's hard though, constantly battling with the negative voice in my head telling me that I can't, that I shouldn't. There are so many things that I want and even more standing in my way. As an educated woman, how is it that I can't seem to succeed? I really want to, I want to overcome my illness, I want to get a career, and I want to start a 'grown-up' life with my partner, but the obstacles are overwhelming, mostly because they are in my head. I feel like I will indefinitely fail, I feel incompetent, and thus I am. However, I will continue to argue with myself until the truest form of myself can flourish, but it is exhausting. Today I vow to withstand the challenge, I will continue the fight, and I will believe that I can. This may just be the most fundamental part of change- the belief in its possibility.
Sincerely yours, Emma

New life, new blog
Or rather, an improving life.
I think it's in our 20's when life gets... complex. School, work, families, friends, goals, hopes and dreams, all these things come into question. As if living (lets face it, in dept and as frugally as possible while maintaining the façade that we have our lives moderately under control) isn't hard enough, we now have to figure out what it is that we truly want. What values do we hold, what our passions are, and what we mark do we want to leave on the world, how do we live authentically while we try to discover these thing?
That's what I am trying to figure out. How to be happy, health and stay motivated when nothing is for certain. So I'm going to write anything, bad or good, that helps me on my path to self discovery be it a recipe, activity, event or random epiphany.
Sincerely yours, Emma
