I don't know what issues I've been having with life lately... Well maybe I just don't like facing things anymore. I don't know what's going on in my head anymore. I'm just at the point in my life where the stress of normal things are really affecting my creative streak. I have not been able to color this same picture I've drawn about a month ago even though I keep promising to get it done. Along with that I sit down and stare at my keyboard and just sigh instead of actually playing it. Maybe it's just the area or I need to retire it.. I dunno. But I miss music. I mean INSTRUMENTAL music. Where I can sit down and just play and not have to worry about anything around me. That's where I find my euphoria when I can but now I can't even put a finger on the key, lift a pencil, or even write the first verse to a poem. I come up with one powerful verse and then I just draw a blank as to what I am feeling, seeing, or even doing.

I don't know maybe I'm just over worked or something, but I just feel that I have hit a creative block. Writer's Block, Artist's Block, what ever you want to call it... I have felt that I have taken a hiatus from art long enough, but I still can't even get one thing out... GOD THIS SUCKS...

As far as solutions go... I have tried slamming my head against the wall (not really but picturing it several times), meditated, put on some creative music to inspire something... still... nothing.

Think it could be the lack of good exercise or diet?

Ah, good old art block. I just got over a 4-year streak of that myself and I feel like I'm finally starting to improve.

Same goes for music, I haven't been able to write down what's in my head to save my life but I hope that changes soon as well! I know one thing that can spark creative juices though, and it's putting down whatever comes into your head, putting it somewhere as soon as you think of it. So if you're writing, just keep writing and don't stop. If you stop to think for only a moment then you're doing it wrong, you need to keep a continuous train of thought and it's the same for drawing and writing music.

dunno why but I think my artist's block is messing with my dreams... I don't know why but Ricky Martin's "Livin La Vida Loca" was going on in my dream. THE ENTIRE SONG. All the words and everything.
