Don’t force it

I was planning to just a quick post today, something to keep the consistency going but nothing that would keep me to far from the festivities and relaxation of today. I have a lot of topics that I want to write about but I don’t quite know how to say that yet. So I am not going to. I am not going to force a post. I am not going to painstakingly sit at my computer for hours to try and make it work. No, I will rest, I will go spend time with family, and then maybe tomorrow I will try again.

I don’t mean you should actually stop writing altogether. Absolutely not, I still write, but I don’t force it to be a thing. I will set a timer and just type what comes to mind. Maybe it is a grocery list. Maybe it is about how I just don’t want to be writing. But it is something and that will do.

For me, as I continue on this creative journey, I have to sit down and let things flow as they will. I can steer, I will steer, but if things don’t turn out the way I had envisioned originally, that’s okay. That is the process. And then we try again tomorrow.
