Honestly, this post is going to be short too... Like most of my posts lately. I don't know why; but for some reason I've just run out of good things to talk about... Even when my dad tries to give me help through quotes and other inspiration, I can't seem to come up with anything.
Maybe it's a lack of motivation. Maybe it's a lack of deep thought. I don't know; but I honestly wish it would stop... I do enjoy writing, when I can actually write something meaningful. My dad considers this blog to be a thought journal; something he wants my sister and I to be able to look back on years later. He hopes that it'll give us some insight into how our minds were; and also that we can always have his stories, thoughts, and lessons. I love the idea of it; but I'm afraid that in a few years I will look back and be disappointed with my own lack of effort. I mean... I have a good post every once in awhile, but I truly feel that my calling is more to poetry. Poetry is my favorite thing to write because it allows me to channel deep within myself and pull out raw emotion and thoughts; something that I can't seem to do with normal writing. My mind goes very fast, so to be able to put my thoughts down on paper (or in my case, a screen) can prove quite difficult. Poetry doesn't run based off of thought. It is based entirely off of feeling (at least for me). I think I'd have much more understanding of my own mindset looking back on my poetry... Than j would looking back on any blog post I wrote. So maybe that's what this is. Not just a lack of motivation or a lack of deep thought; but too MUCH thought and no way of getting it out. What's your writers block? What do you do to stop it? Let me know in the comments. ~ Maddie
