Don't Forget to Re-fuel

I was asked today, “Why don't you write your blog anymore?”

So, why don't I?

This whole adulthood thing seems to try to zap all the creativity right out of us.   The daily grind of life becomes a boring routine. All of the daily, routine chaos of life causes us to forget to make a little time for ourselves to reflect on everything.  

I am just as guilty of being too busy to remember that my inner creative soul needs a little therapy from time to time. I forget that nourishing my imagination re-fuels my passion for life. I forget.

I forget who I really am sometimes. Surely I'm not the only one.

It seems that I have forgotten that I can be my own best therapy. Most of us lose sight of our own true selves when huge changes are dropped on us. I think most of us know what helps us the most,  but we forget about ourselves. We forget that in order to continue the passion that fuels our inner beings towards reaching our goals, we must care for ourselves as much as we care for others.

We have to do that by investing in ourselves the time & effort in order to feel replenished. Writing replenishes me somehow.  I have known that since I was young, but the joys of adulting have clouded my awareness of it. If you don't know what that source is for you, whether it be music, reading, fishing, or whatever, you should spend a little time on self-discovery. Your efforts will be rewarded.

So, my friend, thank you for asking that simple question which provoked a much deeper level of self-examination than you had intended.
