NOW I get it! Now how do I get out of it?

So I've been struggling with why I suddenly can't seem to write about anything. I've always enjoyed writing, and just figured that as soon as I was finished with all of my classes I would just start spouting like a verbiage fountain. Well, that has obviously not been the case. I have numerous ideas that I would like to write about, but I just do not feel the joy of words anymore. As I read the blogs of others I realize that what I enjoy the most about them is the wittiness, the sass, the fun. I used to love that part of writing.

So what I have realized in contemplating all of this is that the current state of affairs of life right now have me feeling too heavy-hearted and, let's be honest here, bitter. I can't write witty and sassy when I feel defeated and bitter. On meltdown-Wednesday this week, I could barely speak words, much less write!

So, I realize I must first work on my state of mind (I'll be able to sort that faster than said current state of affairs of life). Forcing myself to find positive, affirming, empowering messages and images at least once a day is helping, as is  my gratitude journal. I'm a natural optimist. A fighter. And I've never been able to just sit idle. So I figure it's just a matter of time until I start to find my words again, and overthrow my anger and bitterness with wit and sass and joie de vivre.

That's No Way To Do A Blog!

Well, two years later I may have something else to say!

HA!

I've had A LOT to say for these past 2 years. But now I am finished with school (a lot to say on THAT) and have time on my hands again after 4 years. So maybe now will be the time to actually blog...with slightly smaller gaps of time between posts.

Where, oh where, to begin?

Reeling with possibilities.......
