Since the beginning of the year I have to admit that I have lost my writing mojo. I am no longer following the GBE2 or The Writers Post weekly themes since I don't find anything worth writing. I seem to be lost in finding a starting point for my blogging.
The weekly themes are going because to be honest they became dear to me. I do find inspiration in my weekly quotes, cooking is fun, I have thousands of picture which could be shared both for the Wordless Wednesday and for the Green Friday weekly topics. But maybe this should be changed, since “When patterns are broken, new worlds can emerge.”
But something is missing ...
My blog is becoming impersonal somehow and I don't know how to overcome this situation. Deep down I hope that I will find my mojo and be able to write stories again, because in the end this is THE STORY, right?
Feeling passionate and motivated every day for my blog is not easy, but I guess we all experience this at one point.
What I decided is to take one day at a time, by setting small goals for my blog in order to keep me focused and my mind alert; and my hope is that before I know it, I will write ...
BELIEVE, right? And plus I managed the first GBE2 entry for 2013, small achievement indeed!

'I don't want men to go away. I don't want men to stop what they're doing.
What I want, instead, are some radical market forces. I want CHOICE. I want VARIETY. I want MORE. I want WOMEN. I want women to have more of the world, not just because it would be fairer, but because it would be better. More exciting. Reordered. Reinvented.'
From How to be a woman by Caitlin Moran
And now do not panic! I am not an obsessed feminist, it is just the almost ending of a great book which I am currently reading. And it is true, I do believe that women should be more involved in the society, they do make a difference in homes, and they should be in the business environment as much as men.
Power to the women? Why not?
P.S. I am writing this short note, while packing for my next business trip, I will be on 3 continents, 5 countries for the next 4 weeks, and I am not really sure how much time I will have to come to my blog, reply to your lovely comments and visit my favourites bloggers. Please excuse me, I will recover upon my return. Wish me luck and happy Sunday everyone!
P.P.S. This entry is done under the GBE2 Theme 'Pick a line from a book and write from there'
Motto
"A story is not like a road to follow … it's more like a house. You go inside and stay there for a while, wandering back and forth and settling where you like and discovering how the room and corridors relate to each other, how the world outside is altered by being viewed from these windows. And you, the visitor, the reader, are altered as well by being in this enclosed space, whether it is ample and easy or full of crooked turns, or sparsely or opulently furnished. You can go back again and again, and the house, the story, always contains more than you saw the last time. It also has a sturdy sense of itself of being built out of its own necessity, not just to shelter or beguile you."
by Alice Munro
