azhure | Not enough

I’m finding myself more and more frustrated by the “not enoughs”. Not enough time, not enough energy, not enough sleep, not enough focus.

Rough week around here – the kidlet is sick, and as a result, hasn’t been sleeping. And of course, that means that I haven’t been sleeping. Which leaves me pretty much a zombie during the day. I can’t focus on much, and though I’ve been trying to write, I’m pretty much only producing a mess.

This is when it gets really hard for me. I hate looking back on a day and realising that I haven’t produced anything. Today, I wrote a couple of hundred words. Those words will all be scrapped the next time I sit down to write. I actually did have some more time to write today, and I could have forced myself to produce more words, but I knew that they’d just be scrapped as well.

It’s frustrating. But I know that it won’t last forever. And if I can’t write, I can still read and be inspired by what others write.
