James Joyce wrote, “The actions of men are the best interpreters of their thoughts.” My actions as of late have not reflected the best version of myself. While I admit that life circumstances and plain ole fatigue have diminished me as an individual, the true issue beyond my seeming lack of motivation is an inability to connect emotionally with, well, much of anything I put on paper.
There are sparks here and there and some stories rise completely on their own and float up and out of my psyche to the page. The rest feel rushed and forced and often feeble. This extends beyond the blog to even conversations and general interactions. So, what does it say about my thoughts? In the words of Ryback, ‘feed me more’ I need more challenges, more raw emotion, more depth. I just need more.
