The Block

I feel like I have hit a block. Even though I have had good news this week, and finished a huge project for work before the deadline. I can't help but feel like I am not enough, or I feel lonely in my head. I keep saying that it isn't my day but it seems like its ending up not being my week. I'm trying to reiterate positive affirmations to myself and new beliefs but I can't seem to get through it. I don't know why exactly I have decided to post this here, or what I am hoping to get from it. I just wanted to get it off my chest I guess.

I think hitting a block to me seems a lot more daunting, like things are over. Because in Big Brother (a reality TV show that I watch every summer) "The Block" is where people are nominated to be evicted from the house. And then there is the saying "Head to the Chopping Block" which also isn't an inviting way of putting it. There are head blocks, writers blocks, building blocks, road blocks, etc. And I don't find much that is positive or uplifting in the word "Block" so it doesn't help me when I am feeling like I am in one.

Normally when I am in a block I just let it pass, I do all that I can to get myself back up again. But this time I feel like I am doing everything wrong.

Normally, posting to groups on Facebook, talking to friends, family, etc. helps me get out of it. But I haven't made any of those attempts because I feel like they are the wrong way of going about it this time.

So this is where I am going to ask for some advice, where do you get your inspiration to get out of blocks from? And what are the things that you do on a daily basis to make them go away and stay away?

Thank you in advance for helping me,

I'm Back!

Wow, long time no talk right? (Well I guess it's long time no read, really.)

Over the past few weeks I have thought about how much I have missed writing. And not like creative writing like novels and things like that. The type of writing where I basically just word vomit my thoughts onto the internet. The kind of writing where I get compliments from my beautiful grandma about how I blossom when I write. (I love you grandma!! [She is truly the biggest fan of this blog.])

So after I kept thinking "Maybe I should write a post." or "Wow this thought would make an awesome article for people to laugh at on my blog." I decided to wipe off the old keyboard and start again. Now I know that I never had the biggest following but I am hoping to make this into more of a personalized site and just let my creative thoughts really fly. Whether that's every day, once a week, or once a month. Regardless of what it is I am going to let this be an outlet for me again. 

One reason for that is because sometimes I feel like I have too many thoughts in my head (resulting in at least 10 drafts that I have just found when I logged back on. Oops.) But even having the drafts are nice, they can be just for me until I decide that I relate to them enough again to publish them. 

But overall I really love having a way to write about me, my life, and the thoughts I have. And then share them with all of you. 

All in all, I hope there is more than just my grandma that's happy to see these posts back. And if not I am going to just write the greatest posts I can think of for her.
