Writer's Block

This week the weather has not been fantastic. The daily storms and rain are not my favorite and I'm longing for blue skies and sunshine to return. I know ... I'm blessed to have any kind of weather but sunny days at the beach this time of year are what I love the most!

Being home due to the weather, you'd think I'd have more time to write and yet I have struggled to find the words. It's like I have so much to say in my head, thoughts swirling round, but trying to get them to out in a readable format, well it's been a struggle. Yup, the joy of writer's block!!

Sometimes in life it can feel like that. We can feel filled with emotion and yet not know how to express it, get it out, or simply feel it. We get 'stuck' and it can be frustrating living in that place. And so, in talking with someone yesterday, I was reminded of the importance of sometimes just allowing ourselves to be in the moment, whatever that moment looks like. If you want to cry, cry; if you need the help of a sad movie, put one on! If you feel happy, find something that brings that emotion out so you can experience the joy you are looking for.

So today I DARE you to embrace the unspoken, the lack of words, and that 'stuck'ness! Embrace exactly where you are, in this exact moment, and know that there is a reason for being where you are. And then, grab a journal or just. a piece of paper and begin to write .... whatever random words come to mind .... and see where your thoughts take you. Put on that movie, do something to make you smile, or simply take 5 minutes to be in the very moment you're in and breathe.

Here's hoping my words return and in the meantime, thanks for reading my random thoughts that came to mind and hopefully you gained at least a little nugget to help you in your day!!
