I feel stuck.

That’s what I generally feel lately.

Oh, also, uninspired.

Yeah, basically stuck and uninspired.

I think I know when this all started, but I’d rather not go into so much detail as it will reveal things that can get back to people, which can jeopardize things for me.

Many would say that the solution to feeling stuck is just to move or make a change in your life.

In movies, the protagonist would usually just leave home, move out, and start over.

It’s not easy for a young woman living in a third-world country to do just that.

It’s not easy to get the resources I need. I need to find an adequate or decent replacement or get 1 million dollars overnight to do what I want.

But that’s life, isn’t it?

Money isn’t going to fall on your lap like that.

Globally, things aren’t going great either.

I want to feel alive again. I want to wake up feeling at peace and not feeling anxious every day. I want to feel a sense of achievement again. (The last statement sounds like someone who’s going through their 10th profection year– oh wait, I am!)

For now, I’m acknowledging this feeling of “stuck”-i-ness.

I could cry about it; I could feel miserable; I could rewire my brain to think differently about it; I could ask the universe to give me what I want. For now, I think it’s better that I acknowledge it first.

I need to remind myself that it’s okay to do things one at a time. Step by step. I don’t have to do things all at once. Also, I know that I need to have faith and trust in the universe and what it has in store. Things are probably moving slowly now, but eventually, I’ll get to where I need to be.

I’m not sure when I’ll publish my next blog, but ‘till next time!
