In the Middle

Does this give you any indication of my mindset lately?  How about this and the fact I haven't written in weeks?  

I am not afraid to say that right now I feel like I'm in the middle of nowhere, however, I am hopeful that this is exactly where I will find what I need.  I know the equation of work + no writing = someone I don't want to be, but sometimes we really don't have that many choices.  We just have to muddle through.  I'm not making excuses, it's just that I don't have a creative thought in my head, mostly because work is a little intense lately and will be for at least the next five weeks.

I have hope that this next month will be like a spotlight on what I do want in my life.  Does that make sense?  It's like sometimes you just have to sit in the middle of nowhere for a while to realize that isn't where you want to be.... and suddenly where to want to be and what you want to be doing becomes crystal clear.

There's a few authors I follow on Facebook, and I'm not sure that's a good thing or a bad thing anymore.  I read their posts and become quite envious of their lives, and while somedays it motivates me to write, there are other days I sink a little thinking I'll never get there.   And then I remember...

I'm in the middle of nowhere.

And that's okay... I've been here before.  I am learning to find gratitude here because I know something good will come from this, whether it's clarity or creativity.  Something good always comes out of it.

I have faith.

Hope you're all well.  

Happy Weekend!
