How many times have you doing something you don’t want to do while you wanted to do something else?

I had to do a lot of household chores today. I stood in front of the mirror with the dust cleaner and I captured the moment. This moment says a lot. This moment is killing my inspiration on the various topics I want to write about.

I don’t see a person in the mirror who has the enthusiasm for doing household chores. I see a person who wants to write. But I'm going against myself because unfortunately sometimes we have to.

How many times have your hands been in one place and your thoughts in another? Today is one of those days when my hands are separated from my thoughts.

Where are my hands?

My hands had to be in different places while I was trying to keep my thoughts in my head until "me" time comes.

First I had to clean the dust. I do this once every 7 days. Very boring activity, not at all inspiring. But we can't breathe dust so it has to be cleaned.

After that, my hands were in the bathroom, in water and foam of detergents. I have to admit that I like to clean the bathroom. I love the feeling when everything is clean and smells nice. I clean the bathroom often and that's why I usually don't have a lot of work to do there because everything is already clean and well maintained.

Of course, I had to prepare lunch like every day. Three pots/pans, two hands, difficult but possible. I was making moussaka today. An original Greek dish that is often prepared in my country as well.

Dough. My hands are often in the dough because my family prefers when I make bread than when we buy it in the store. I love it too and this dough kneading activity relaxes. It can be considered anti-stress therapy as well.

Where are my thoughts?

It's all nice, but I'm tired. The inspiration for writing is slowly fading. All the topics I wanted to write about are lost in my thoughts. Everything smells nice and everything is clean. We are not hungry. But the inspiration goes away.

And the good thing is that the inspiration is not gone yet. I can still refresh my thoughts. And as you may have noticed, I still write.

Yes, I wrote today's article. It’s not my best article but I still wrote it. I did what I wanted. You can find inspiration in everything, just allow it to yourself. Don't let inspiration go. Refresh your thoughts often, read, think, even when doing other things that you are not thrilled about. As long as the spirit that leads us to write lives in us, we will be able to find a way to express our thoughts.

Thank you for your time.
