It is that time when something is burning to get out, but I don't have the words to get it out.
I think I'm going to go elsewhere. This isn't working for me. Or, maybe it is and I need to stick with it. write write write. Who cares?
Might I be getting into that negative frame of mind again?
Do any of you have that problem when you write something really good (not only you think it is really good) and the next day it is like starting all over again? Nothing comes to mind.
I wrote something; therefore, something came to mind.
I have been studying the I Ching. I like the different hexagrams (symbols) used to represent nature. I've yet to get to any depth in regards to this subject. I just know that I like it.
The flame of passion burns inside of me. This world must change. The only way to successfully change the world is to change me. If I can do that, a whole new world will be open to me to explore.
Who wants to be free? Who is willing to put in the work to get free? It will be painful. All growth will go through growing pains. I'll probably complain it about it some more and make it worse on myself before I am finished playing that game.

@steemmonsters Steem Monsters Common Card Fantasy Story Contest! - Coming out roughly every week. If you enjoy card games like Magic, Yugio, and others like it, you might like this game. Write a fictional tale about the card they present in the contest and your entry just might be the one they choose to showcase.

@vdux Haiku - These are coming out every couple days or so. If you stuggle with rhymes, no worries. Haikus don't have to rhyme. All you need to make a haiku is five syllable on the first, seven syllables in the second line, and again back to five syllable for the last line. So easy it makes me think I'm being super product. LOL
