Oh, my!!!! Well, I've known for years that walking seems to spark extra creativity for me. But I'm in my 8th month of being stuck, hobbling slowly with walker or crutches and unable to walk. I've also had ZERO ability to be creative! The spark has vanished. It has been sooo discouraging, as I was always always always creative, no matter what was going on in my life, no matter how much stress or upset etc.

Now I understand this barren wasteland that used to be my brain! I figured it was just that I've been dealing with a lot of pain and exhaustion because of my injuries and long healing process. I'm sure that's part of it but now I see that it's likely much more because of my severe lack of physical movement. I don't have a lot of choice in the matter, but at least finally things seem to be shifting and I hope that it won't be much longer before I can just use a cane - and then the next step will be no cane and just feet!

I wish wish wish I could walk (I mean, "go for a walk" and "walk unassisted" and "walk faster than a snail!"). I've about had enough of this feeling so stuck. Stagnant energy cannot spark creativity!

Thanks so much for this, Srini!!!! Sending you lots of love.
