Sharpening my rustic mind......

Alone in my room thinking how to write my first blog post... i find myself at lost.
With a soothing music on the background and a beautiful picture i took on my travel to the Dakotas, i found my mind empty of ideas to scribble.
I started thinking... when did i last write my thoughts?
Heck its been a long time!
Maybe been busy searching adventure or maybe i lack the inspiration.
Whatever happen to the Ice i know who only have books for company or a journal to write what's on her mind.
Is she lost or just hiding underneath?
Did she hibernated because she'd been hurt that she need the time to recuperate???
Or she just need sharpening because she'd been under waters that the oxides have started to eat her up?
or maybe its already eight in the morning and she hasn't sleep yet!!!
Oh well..... i have to wrap this up!! I'm not making any sense at all! My muse is missing have to look for it!
So long......

...you're mind is not rustic at all....collective thoughts and your ryhme poetic words which i presume still intact in your memory banks will help you ....it might be your preoccupied situations...try and do more and youve got one in me...

Edmund Morrison: Quotes about Writing
Like stones, words are laborious and unforgiving, and the fitting of them together, like the fitting of stones, demands great patience and strength of purpose and particular skill.

Joseph Pulitzer: Quotes about Writing
Put it before them briefly so they will read it, clearly so they will appreciate it, picturesquely so they will remember it, and above all, accurately so they will be guided by its light.

Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don't try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It's the one and only thing you have to offer.

We are a species that needs and wants to understand who we are. Sheep lice do not seem to share this longing, which is one reason why they write so little.

Are we, who want to create, in some way specially talented people? Or has everybody else simply given up, either by preassures of modesty or laziness, and closed their ears from their inner need to create, until that need has died, forgotten and abandoned? When you look at children, you start to think the latter. I still haven't met a child who doesn't love - or who at least hasn't loved - drawing, writing or some other creative activity.

Reading usually precedes writing and the impulse to write is almost always fired by reading. Reading, the love of reading, is what makes you dream of becoming a writer.

I learned that you should feel when writing, not like Lord Byron on a mountain top, but like a child stringing beads in kindergarten - happy, absorbed and quietly putting one bead on after another.

A word is a bud attempting to become a twig. How can one not dream while writing? It is the pen which dreams. The blank page gives the right to dream.
