Sometimes there are situations that require human skills to put a person in place. This problem is often not an easy task, given that people are different, and they leverage that reliable influence on some. Others simply do not understand and will not work on them.

I find when writing becomes less of a course of nature for me, painting and letting out imagery and color can itself ease up the processes of writing. These past few years I have been deeply studying and practicing meditation, which shares something with contemplation.
