Pen on Paper

I was catching up on Biggest Loser episodes (thank you IPOD) and was inspired to write page after page, topic after topic with pen to paper. There are numerous blog entries that have been inspired and will be coming up soon.

I spent the last three weeks of January on the road and although the first week ended well the last two weeks were uninspired at best, lazy at worst. After arriving home I was just overwhelmed with frustration. When am I ever going to finish this? How is it possible when I am on the road at least two weeks every month for the foreseeable future? I was discouraged. I tried to listen to others to get the encouragement I needed, family commenting on my appearance, my mom telling my aunts I rock, friends reading my blog and giving great feedback, but that internal spark wasn't lighting.

But today I wrote and found a little of the inspiration I thought I had lost. I guess I'm just always surprised to find what I remember when I take time to listen to myself. In writing or running, I listen to what I've been feeling and find the answers I need to get moving again.
