Good morning, beautiful readers, I hope everyone is having a great start to your day. I’m enjoying the fruits of my labor in back patio. The garden has truly awakened the wisteria has swung back hard from the aftermath of the wild “cold” weather here in Florida. I was really worried how they drooped and the leaves fell off, but now every day new leaves unfurl and limbs are beginning to split from the main shoot. Anyways, today, is all about rekindling one’s own energy, let’s brew about it!
So, what do I mean about rekindling energy? I’m talking about that core of your person that makes you want to wake up every day. That surge of desire to take the day by the horns because you got something in mind to accomplish. I don’t know about you but mine had kind of plummeted for quite some time. I ‘d have pockets of inspiration and excitement but its been a bit of a drag lately.
That’s why in this post, I wanted to talk about NOT forgetting that part of yourself, which as you can tell I kind of had. I love to write and other art related things, not that I’m not writing here, but I love to create stories. I enjoy adventure, horror and comedy and building worlds and I just haven’t really in years it seems. But this weekend I felt the urge calling to me every softly, as cheesy as the fuck that sounds.
But yes, your girl sat down for an hour and let the fingertips fly across the keyboard sitting out in my favorite sanctuary aka where the garden grows. I imagined a world that I wanted to revisit, a place I thought about even though I have many. It started from a clip I seen of Jordan Peele, saying simply write for yourself, write for the movie that you want to see that hasn[t been made, yet and worry about selling it later. I think this is loosely a quote as I cant find that clip anymore. But in essence I wanted to envision a story I haven’t read, yet. I’m not belittling the books I’ve read but I felt there was something missing, a story, I want to see or write.
And so, dear readers, I feel that that writing part of me is ready to come out and tackle it again, I’m not going to put the chains of “you have to write X amount of pages a day” on myself. If I write a paragraph today then great, if I write five pages over the weekend that’s great too. So, with that being said, if there is something that you used to enjoy doing, don’t let it be snuffed out by the day to day or the stress of a crisis that piles on your plate like a holiday dinner. GO BE YOU, and you may be tired and you may feel like you don’t have it in you, but you can DO it. Just the other day, I got off of work and I didn’t want to do a review video on Facebook, but in reality I really did deep down. So, I put on the big girl pants and got to work, and I’m glad I did.
So, I’m leaving you with this my friends, you can go one more mile even when you think you can’t. It’s in there, just one foot in front of the other, one breath after the other and you will be glad of it, that I believe one hundred percent. Go, get out there and get after it my spooky friends.
As Always Keep On Brewin!
