Uninspired
Have you ever had to come up with a presentation, or a good gift idea, or something to write about in your blog, and you just felt uninspired? Of course you have, we all have at some time in our life. Well I thought I would talk about UNinspiration. Yeah, I know it's not a word. Thanks spellcheck. There are people who seem to have it together, whatever "it" is. They're always coming up with good ideas and fun things to do. Then there's the rest of us. At the times I feel uninspired, it's as if I'm wearing the same clothes day after day. Maybe it's a form of depression. I'm sure I'm not depressed at this moment, just uninspired. What seems to pull out a person out of it? At what point do you turn the corner and start coming up with clever ideas? For instance, last night for dinner we had just plain old roast beef sandwiches, and it was my idea. Why didn't I put a slice of tomato on it? I guess I did put horseradish on it, only because I like to feel pain sometimes when I eat. I appreciate and at the same time feel a little irritated at those clever people who seem to pull things together at the last minute so everyone has a good time. Maybe exercise would help get the creative proverbial juices flowing again. OK, I'm back. I had to lay down for about 45 minutes until that last thought went away. OK, conclusion is this; the human psyche experiences highs and lows, and sometimes there has to be a mental coffee break (maybe even a literal coffee break). So, I'm going to try changing my clothes, slicing a tomato, stretch after a nap (exercise), hug and then slap someone inspirational, and we'll see what happens.

Could the problem be you were trying to be inspired at 5AM!?
