I’m not sure what it is about June…whether it’s the start of that old school vacation vibe, or that it’s the halfway point through the year and I don’t want to think where my goals are, or heck, maybe it’s just the heat and humidity kicking in…but June makes me restless. In a sluggish kind of way.
I want to get motivated. But only a little bit.
I wish I could get started on a writing project. But nothing too demanding.
I love what I do. But I’d rather be making cloud pictures today.
So I found this quote that I think is perfect for what’s ailing me in June. And maybe it’s perfect for any writer who’s kinda stuck in a rut. Or really, for anyone who’s just plain stuck.
It may be that when we no longer know which way to go that we have begun our real journey. The mind that is not baffled is not employed. The impeded stream is the one that sings.

Cathy C. Hall Writes 
I think lots of people get in a similar rut this time of year, Cathy.If anyone wants a not-too-challenging challenge, come on over and try my Monday Morning Photo Prompt at Bifocal UnivisionNo rules, just let the picture speak to you. I even got me one of them there fancy Mr. Linky gadgets. Everybody's welcome to join in each Monday. 🙂
Well, if you've got a fancy Mr. Linky gadget, I'll have to check it out! 🙂
Love this quote, Cathy. Thanks for sharing – it's much needed lately.
You always have such wonderful quotes on Motivational Monday, too, Madeline. And in case I haven't said so, I appreciate them muchly!
Either the June heat begs lethargy or the beautiful skies but I say go with it. My hammock is my favorite place to be.
I LOVE the quote!! I've been suffering from my severe wanderlust, so maybe that's kind of what you have, too? I think I should just wander on down South and see my Blogger Gal Pals!! What'dya think?!
Sally, I spend a ridiculous amount of time on my deck, in an old comfy chair, claiming to work. :-)And Becky, come on down, girl!
That's a great quote. I think this sort of restlessness does reflect the birth a desire for change of some sort – even small change. But you can't deny the effect of heat too! I feel like being very mellow today….
Nice to see I'm in good company. I just CAN'T concentrate lately!! I'll be glad if I can get my WIK submission sent in this month. Thanks for the encouragement. Now I feel I'm embarking on my journey to success instead of spinning my wheels. 🙂
