Unable to write...

I can relate to that. I know my happiest times are when I don't have to go to work. A few weeks ago, my son was sick (vomiting, diarrhoea), so I kept him home and took the day off work. It was a wonderful time (he wasn't terribly sick) playing together.
Even, now, as I continue to have strep and have had for the past 4 weeks, I took a total of 4 days sick leave from work, even though I was miserable, I was still happy. I liked being at home, to have my own time.
We can't have everything NOW, but we can make plans for the future. I know, in my case, that I really, really have to work on my ability to focus on one thing. It is too easy for me to fly off in a million directions and not complete anything. It is hard because it is not me.
I think we need to play more, work less. We need to enjoy life. As I was (and am) fond of saying, "work causes us to miss the nice things in life". Today it was a beautiful sunny day, not too hot, but I was indoors (at least I have windows - not stuck in the middle of a factory with nothing but artificial lights).
Don't pressure yourself. Just do something. Something small. Something in the general direction you want to go. Then do another thing. Little by little, you will start to get to where you want to be.
Mind you, I have not yet reached my destination, but I am slowly taking steps toward it (actually, I don't really know what "it" is - just some state of peace).
Take care and don't be shy to visit sometimes (mind you, I haven't been blogging much lately). Interestingly, August / September, of late, have been bad months for me. I seem to always get emotionally down and become kind of needy. I think it is because summer is approaching its end (well, the July / August bit of it) and nothing much has happened, except that I didn't enjoy the Summer. It went by. I worked. All the promise and hope and anticipation that Spring brought, pushed aside because I had to work, to make a living. Hmmm ... I think I better stop before I become really melancholic.
