Its almost been 3 months since I last posted in this blog. Wow! For those of you that take the time to read my incessant ramblings, I’m sorry! I don’t have a good excuse for my prolonged absence, the only thing I can say in my defense is that my life is really hectic right now for some reason that is unknown to me. Usually, I would promise to do better, but I haven’t kept that promise yet so I’m not gonna make it again. I will say that I’m hoping to get my life to a point that I have time to do all the things I want to do. On to what brings me here today…

I’m noticing a decline in my ability to sit down and write. Not to say that the unthinkable has happened and I’ve lost my talent, it feels like I never have time to do it. And when I do try to devote time to writing, I’m never able to get in the proper mindframe to do it. To put it plainly, life has gotten in the way. When I was unemployed, I could write all day. There were times when I forced myself to not write, purely because I was in such a dark place in my life and I didn’t want to see my mind’s interpretation of it in black & white. All I wanted was a job, any job so I didn’t have to spend so much time dealing with my own demons. Now, I have a job but I can’t write anything to save my life. All I want now is time to sit down and express myself lyrically. While I would love to believe that this struggle is mine and mine alone, its not. I’m blessed to have coworkers that are experiencing similar problems when it comes to their own creative process. I guess we all need a vacation…
