For someone who hasn't draw much in his life, I sure do have some nerves saying that word. But frankly speaking, I feel like the enthusiasm is slowly being drained away, getting tired all the time whenever I grab a pencil. 

I have the goals and ideas, but that spirit, if you will, isn't there to keep me going. My friends suggested that I should stay away from art for a few days to regain that energy, yet the longer of my absence from it, the less motivated I become. I get discouraged further whenever I see some really awesome artworks.

I do not wish to give up. If you have any advices for me, I would really appreciate it.

Oh my, thank you all so much for the advises and the motivational posts. Although I didn't reply personally to every single one of it, I just want to let you guys know that I read all of it, so not to worry. Honestly, I didn't expect a lot of replies when I first wrote this journal because I thought this would be assumed as just another typical whining post.

But after seeing all your comments, it really does help to brighten my mood and spirit. Every single words you had written gave me the energy to move forward, to keep on progressing towards what I like to do. I supposed creativity will come when it comes, but it doesn't mean I have to stop doing whatever that it is I'm doing if it doesn't. Just keep on drawing, and naturally, the block will dissolve itself.

I don't know what else to say except that I really appreciate the encouragement all of you had given. Thank you!
