Just Keep Writing...

Remember the phrase in FINDING NEMO, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming"? Well, that is how I currently feel. I am chanting "just keep writing...". I am on my last assignment for this session. I just have no ambition right now. I have no drive. If I can just finish this paper, I will have a four day break. I am so tired. I am almost defeated when thinking of my parents health. We have family relationships that are strained and that takes a toll on me. Family is suppose to always be there, having one another's back. I am a very emotional person, but am trying to contain them and it is nauseating me. I just really don't care about writing this paper, even though it is a subject that I love. I will graduate in February of 2018, so I must press on.

Oh no! I hope you are able to relax and unwind some so you can focus and get your paper done. Do you have anything you can do to help you focus on a short break before working on it again?
When I got that way, I usually had a cup of hot chocolate. Chocolate can help with brain activity, its good, and can help relax!

I feel like you are having some issues with your family. Just keep on praying and think that soon your family and you will be fine. Thanks for inspiring me with that phrase from NEMO. I agree with you. If we have this particular goal in mind, we shouldn't quit no matter how rough the road is. God bless you!

I'm sorry about the tough situation you currently have to deal with. I hope you stay strong, but it's totally okay to pause and breath sometimes. It can help you regain that motivation to continue writing.

To me no wonder you cannot write the paper. You have too much to deal with.Can you take a little break and come back to the paper when life is easier for you? Yes, family is suppose to be there for you but does work that way with all families. It hard too when they are not there for you.
