Perhaps it is ironic that I have spent most of today trying to come up with a subject for a good post, but have regardless failed. The thing is, I know that anything I could come up with would not be nearly as powerful or interesting or worthwhile as what I wrote yesterday. And just as a matter of clarification, yesterday's post was entirely fictional, although one may argue that it reveals aspects of my mind and thought process that are indeed applicable.
Regardless, here I am again: trying to figure out what to write about. It seems as though in the past several days that has become more difficult to do. Sometimes, as with yesterday, topics just come to me. Other times, I take what I was thinking about and alter it to make it more interesting as a post or perhaps change the way I write about it. But then some days like today, I find myself entirely lacking in subject matter.
So then I either write a post like this, that details my troubles in coming up with a topic, or I ask someone to come up with a topic for me. Lately, I've been trying to write more moving, original, fascinating things...and I think it may have been working. I rather like some of the posts that I have written recently. However, I feel as though I am lacking in original subject matter to write about.
One of the things I enjoy writing most is a story that has happened to me, perhaps slightly exaggerated, perhaps somewhat blurred, perhaps shortly modified, but nonetheless my story. The problem is that recently, I have not had any stories of my own that seem worth writing. Or any that have, I find to be the sorts of things that I do not as of yet bring myself to write about.
Here I sit again, then...spilling out my thoughts as they enter my head, wondering how else to write a good post tomorrow, hoping that some form of inspiration will strike. But more often than not, it doesn't, and I find myself rambling yet again, much like I am at present. So I apologize sincerely for the lack of powerful post today, but I conclude this with the hope of producing a decent piece of writing tomorrow.
