Emma Anders.
Two words, one person.
When I was little, my mom used to say that you could do anything if you believed. My brother sneered at the idea, but I believed her. Children tend to do that, believe what they're told. So I guess that was why I was so surprised when she died. If you could do anything you believed, then why didn't my mom believe she could live? Could I have done anything to make her live longer? Was it my fault?
At the funeral, I kept expecting for her to wake up and hug me like she always would and tell me it would be okay. My brother just kept telling me "She's Never Coming Back" over and over again. My child brain thought he was wrong, that she would come back to me, but I guess I never understood what he really meant until now.
Sure, she wasn't ever going to physically come back, but I could control whether or not her legacy lived, whether or not she was remembered, and whether or not her kindness and generosity could be passed on through me to others. I needed to learn to live through hardships and take trouble by the horns.
This is my story.

Leftover
I feel more tired than ever, yet I've never been so hopeful. My imagination of the future never dared to look past the age of 18. Today, I dream bigger than ever. I'm longing for more.

I feel like I've hoarded up so many emotions over the years that I now must scream them out as loud as I can - in every way I possibly can. Read my books. Study my pictures. Listen to my music. Recognize my thoughts in every aspect of your life. Learn to see the world through my eyes, and I promise you: you won't be the same. For better or worse, this world is as evil as it is pure.
