Blank Pages

 I don't know what is going on lately with my writing. I suppose I should say my lack of writing.

I sit down with my journal or at the computer to write and nothing comes.  Even if I had a spark of inspiration at some point and have a plan to expand on that idea - it fizzles out as quickly as it came. 

It has now come to a point where I procrastinate trying to journal or write.  Many days, I avoid it altogether Anything to put off that moment of staring at a blank page and finding nothing to fill it.

It's frustrating. And extremely discouraging. 

I Should Blog About This

I've been doing some deep thinking recently.  And some not-so-deep thinking also.  As I find myself buried inside my head I often think "I should write/blog about this"

Then the moment passes.

And it's gone.  The thoughts I was thinking.  Vanished.  Like so much smoke in the air.  Leaving me with the knowledge that at some point I had a great idea.  But now it's not even a memory.

Which is just so frustrating!

It happens with dreams also.  I wake from a dream, realizing I should write about whatever it was I was just dreaming.  Then I fall back asleep.  By morning whatever it was which was so brilliant, so witty, so meaningful - has withdrawn back into my subconscious.  Never to be recovered.

I would have way more posts written (and probably be far more entertaining) if I just remember all the great stuff I come up with when I am not anywhere around the computer!
