Circles.

I write because...I love it.

I don't write because...I'm lazy.

I write because...I'm good at it.

I don't write because..I'm a procrastinator.

I write because...I use it as therapy.

I don't write because...I'm tired when I get off work.

I write because...I've heard that people "hear me" when they read my work.

I don't write because...I don't make it a priority like I should.

I write because...I know it is important to me.

I don't write because...


Because...

Because WHAT again?

The pros outweigh the cons. Let's get busy. The cycle has to stop and stop doing the same thing. We're not yielding any results here.

The Wall

It happened. I knew it would but was hoping it would take longer.  I was hoping I'd react differently.

The wall hit me right in my face with my daily posts and instead of believing that I could climb my big behind over it - or at least get a rope to help me up - I let it get the best of me and I stopped writing.

Sure, my biggest problem is coming up with something to say that I want to really share.  I'm pretty open on here but sometimes there are some things a girl just wants to keep to herself, you know?  I mean, I don't have any real "business" anyway but you know what I'm saying!  Then when I do get a topic, I have to think hard about not being too "wordy."  One thing about me: I. CAN. TALK.  My writing is conversational and those who know me can literally hear my voice when they read what I write.  But when reading, there's no time for all that. I have to just get to the point.

Anyway, I say all that to say I haven't given up yet. At all.  While I've lost momentum and the point was to write daily, I still believe I will finish up strong. I'm just disappointed in myself.

Oh well. *slowly starts climbing up and over the wall*
