HelenaTherese in Journal

Journalling

So often I sit down at my desk or on the old playhouse steps or down on the lawn as I am doing now, and I spend at least ten minutes staring at the sky, listening to everything around me and being eaten alive by a multitude of mosquitos while contemplating my day and wondering what I’m going to write.

And even after writing for five minutes I haven’t really said anything. All I’ve done is complain about my lack of inspiration.

~ I wrote this in my journal a while ago, and sadly no further inspiration came to me.

Oh my gosh I feel this. Every time I write. Sometimes I spend at least an hour just lying on the floor and staring into space, and then I don't actually end up writing a word ;) A friend of mine once said that sometimes inspiration comes to you and sometimes you have to drag it out kicking and screaming, but I don't quite know where to find it and I'm even less sure how to drag it out XD
