The Feels

April 5, 2016

I hate the feels. They make life so much more complicated then it needs to be. Especially, when it's your best guy friend. Sometimes I truly question whether guys and girls can be just friends.

Better question. Why did I tell him? Because I feel like being honest is the best approach. Was I wrong?

Is it better to not say anything and still have feels or say something and possibly hurt the friendship? Both decisions suck. (ugh!)

Now that he knows I feel better because I can be honest with myself and move on. (That's super hard though). I know that for the sake of our "bestie" relationship, I have to learn to love him like a brother. But how? (heck if I know!)

I want to be sorry for saying anything but I also know that it was the best decision. (I think?) Why do feels have to make things so awko taco?

Stupid feels. Sometimes I wish I didn't have them.

Do you have the feels?

xoxo,
Em

Unexpected Realizations

September 8, 2016 Yesterday, I had a conversation that I wasn't expecting to have and it went better than expected. Sometimes, you expect the worst in people and then they surprise you. Then, I realized how much a horrible person I can be by judging someone based on my emotions. (Bad life choice!) Then, I once again have a realization that pushing people out because of others isn't right but how often do we find ourselves doing it? Or how often do we justify it because of our anger and emotions? Too often, we let our emotions make our decisions instead of trying to be reasonable or logical about the situation. It can be hard to "check" ourselves when we know that we will be wrong or our actions will be. However, it can be redeeming to realize that you're wrong and move past it. While it can be awkward to have those conversations, the freedom that comes from them is unexplainable sometimes. I was wrong. Very wrong. I judged and then I realized I didn't ...

Lust and Loneliness

As I am sitting in Panera eating lunch, it dawns on me that I was having a whole conversation with myself this morning about a post I was going to write. Needless to say, I didn't actually remember until right now. Since I visited my alma mater (that's weird) this past week, I have had to do a lot of self-reflecting on where I am in this stage of my life. Most people, either friends from undergrad or pharmacy school are married, engaged or in committed relationships and I am sitting here single as a pringle. Let me tell ya it does not feel good. However, one of my friends, I'm not sure which told me that to find the relationship I desire that I need to have joy and contentment in this stage. That really got me thinking about where I am and who I perceive God to be in my life. So often, I find myself angry that I prayed for something and God didn't answer my prayer or do so in the timely fashion I had hoped. This causes me to put God in a genie bottle and say that I ...

Rule Ten

Yesterday, my dad sent me the beginning of the rules he lives his life by or life lesson he has learned along the way. I appreciated all of them but the last one stuck out to me in particular. Rule Ten: Remember where you came from and who you are.  As I have really pondered this idea since I started school, I came back to it yesterday. Who am I? Where do I come from? What do I want to represent in life? These are questions that beg for answers far greater than I can suffice. I spent all of high school wondering who I was but found my stride in college. Quite frankly since coming to professional school, I have started to wonder the same thing. How do I live like Jesus and love the people around me when it is the exact opposite of the culture? Don't we ask ourselves this all the time. Or maybe, it's just me. As a Christian, I constantly ask myself how do I live as Christ in a world ran by the devil? I really don't have an answer. Shocker. I don't know everythin...
