Writer's Block

As you can see from my frequent posting, I have had a slight case of writer's block. Typical I know. I'm a twenty-something, that has a blog about whatever I want it to be about, and yet, I have writer's block. I have several posts that I've started and never finished. And sadly, I believe I started those prior to my last post in March. I'll blame it on the beginning of the year, which held several major life changes: A got a new job, we switched churches, and moved closer to DC. I use "I blame" very loosely (meaning I know it wasn't that). I was probably just plain lazy and unfocused, which I shall blame on being a twenty-something. Man, I am good at assigning blame.

Really, I'm just poking fun at my generation and how sad we are. If you would like proof and comical relief, please view this video: Stuff Twentysomethings Say. Yes people, we are that pathetic. And yes, I really want to read the book 101 Secrets For Your Twenties by Paul Angone.

Alright, so what is the point of this post?  I honestly feel like I've had writer's block and I really am as lame as those people portray me, as a twenty-something, to be.

I live in America. I have a degree. I have an awesome job. I have an amazing husband. I have good friends. I have a great family. And most importantly, I'm free to have a relationship with God and not be persecuted for it. I have multiple positives in my life that should inspire me to write (on my blog that no one reads).

I know that I get caught up in my problems (or what I think are problems) and I know that I shouldn't do that. I lose sight of all that is good in my life when what I should be doing is putting on my big girl panties and dealing with whatever it is. Life is all about perspective.

What I'm trying to get across is said beautifully by Robert Frost. He says, "In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." Pure genius.
