I am not having an idea for the blog! Which can never get more frustrating. This is the nightmare every writer gets, the writers block. When something you love to do is being restricted by your own brain is the most deceitful thing and the biggest form of betrayal. For a professional writer it's worse, his bread depends on it, he gets crazy and irrational ideas that he will never get any idea for the rest of his life and then he'll die knowing that he failed his readers by not giving them another piece to read. The writer will welcome any idea in his mind, no matter how improbable, how stupid, even if evil (which they usually get). The idea is welcomed because there is a desperate need of one.
When you don't get an idea, you will try numerous methods to get one, and you just think you have a tube attached in your ear with a machine on the other end which will flood your brains with mind blowing fiction! But there isn't one so comes the uninvited frustration, agony and anxiousness to fill the gap. When one is having a writers block it can become anything from gorillas in steroids to being a burrito of sadness, from being a Himalayan monk to being in periods (don't ask how I know that). So it can be wise if you leave them to their own devices. But if you are close enough to them then you may give them comfort, be a shoulder to think on. This can be applicable to to full time writers who can't just get any ideas for their book, because just admit it word-minglers, your bread depends on it and that is enough reason to get frustrated.
All the above secretive (probably false, too) things I told you are done is private, in public it is a more "social" reactions. They are walking down the road having a hot dog in one hand and coffee in the other while their friend takes leverage of their deep thinking and gulps down the sausage and drinks the coffee while the owner either does not care or didn't notice. The silver lining is that the possessions would have ended at the trash uneaten and not drunken so it was good that they managed to have been treated by the acids of any Homosapien.
After all the suffering and cursing, God decides to show his appreciation that you survived all these times. He sends one gift, an angel, a guardian, which you know will be cherished by you for all time because that one gift will be loved by you in no time and forever after, because it will come in the form which every inhabitant of this precious rock knows as an inspiration, mine was Anna, my best friend.
So this is the phenomenon of being in a Writer's block. It is actually not a fearsome condition as I have described it. It can be normal for some people but to some, not. Writer's block can even be overcome easily, the most known way is finding an inspiration, or you can just utter out loud and you may come across an idea worth sharing. So guys, this is the dark side of being a writer, don't be discouraged by this one, this one is lousy, you already know the positives so look up to them, every coin has two sides folks. You can't avoid that.
