Scarlet Emily


I rage, I fight, I listen, I laugh. But mostly I lost my idealism in my mid 20s. I've learned that ism's are apparent in every aspect of life and there's not much that can be done about them unfortunately. But I still write on this blog because it relieves my stress and makes life seem a little less meaningless.

Where Did The Dream Go?

I remember being a young child and adults always asking me, what do you want to be when you grow up? what are your dreams?

I remember that I had so many, but I can’t remember what they are anymore and this makes me really sad.  I wanted so many things out my life, but somehow something always got in the way.  We get stuck in the routine of life and paying bills and just trying to make it.

But no longer.  I am letting go so I can move forward. 

I am going to remember what my dreams were or what they are now and go for them.  I can’t be afraid and I can’t live my life for someone else or someone else’s expectations of what I should be.

I’m feeling incredibly strange about my life right now, but I’m going to make things happen.  I’m going to grab onto life and I’m going to go after my dreams.
