Writing feels odd to me this week. Instead of plowing through it anyway I decided to take a break for a few days. I believe this has made me feel worse. When I write I am forced to put what I read into my own perspective and apply it to my life that way. It somehow solidifies things for me and imprints them on my heart in order to carry it with me throughout my day.
These past few days I have been lost. My thoughts are scattered, energy levels low, and I haven't been able to accomplish much (putting in nicely... really, I have turned into super
bitch - just ask my family). Could this all be a result of not writing?
So today I am forcing myself back at it and writing about not writing seemed the easiest topic to tacle this morning. Maybe it will carry me through to something more thought provoking.........
you write everyday? that's wonderful. In "the artist's way" Julia Cameron talks about the importance of morning pages- free thought writing 1st thing in the morning, every morning. Writing the second you get up creates the most ridiculous- and sometimes most honest- work.
ReplyDeleteI hope whatever writing u do "snaps" u out of the funk.
Hello Brie : )
ReplyDeleteI was writing about my devotion that I have been reading every day. It was helping me apply it to my life instead of just reading it and thinking, oh that's nice. But sometimes it is hard to accept and apply. So maybe i need to give myself a bigger range of things to write about - like anything! HA!
