Five.

Who stole my motivation?
I go to bed each night full of thoughts. Full of words to click onto a keyboard or to ink onto paper. When I wake up, I tell myself, sit, write, you'll feel better. When I open the laptop or pull out my notebook, the words run away. They're scared to become more than thoughts. Maybe I'm scared to write them. Maybe if I write them, they'll become real? Not even dramatic things, I just cannot motivate myself to write more than this; a pathetic excuse for not writing.
I cannot motivate myself to do anything but nap. Or binge. Or read. Or chill out with my luscious new blanket. Theres always a new excuse. I'm sick of making excuses.


Todays excuse is dedicated to Becky Bloodnut. May you rest in peace dear rangabraids.

  1. what is a nap if not a time filler
    what is a binge if not a feeling filler

    from personal experience, i started slowly.
    slow down your thinking, slow down your hand, timing is an amazing factor that we take for granted.. we are not made for rushing, something just tells us there is NO time, there is NO excuse for having time.
    Busy. Busy Bizzay.

    Relax your mind, in due time.
