It is frustrating that, in a world of beautiful and inspiring things, I have difficulty getting inspired…
Creativity doesn’t work on command and I have realized that. I try not to force myself to write when I don’t want to. However, it really sucks when I have so much to say and I want to sit and write, but words just don’t come. It is such a weird feeling to have the word trapped and swirling around in your head and no way of getting them out. That is writer’s block to me. Writer’s block feels like someone put a wall in front of my creative brain and was like “okay find a way around that”. And my creative brain just sort of sits there throwing stuff over the wall so, on my end, I receive a bunch of half baked ideas.
Even sitting here writing this post has been a struggle. I have come back to it 3 times now and I can only write a few sentences before I get mentally fatigued. I am feeling creative but I don’t know what outlet my brain is looking for because right now writing does not seem like its desired choice.
I guess the best thing I could do for myself now is continue to look for the beautiful and inspiring things in the world and hope that something comes to me sooner or later.
