Momentary Relapse

I don't know why but I've been feeling very uninspired lately. I'm usually the type that always has his nose in a book and is constantly pondering the mysteries of life, but lately that has not been the case.

It could be of the familial issues that I'm going through at the moment, it could be the weather, it could be the aftermath of laziness or a combination of everything thereof. This isn't the first time I've gone through something like this, but its a tad bit disappointing as I thought it was behind me.

We all have these spurts don't we? These brief moments where we don't want to do or think anything, where we simply observe and feel the waves of life drifting us off to the next shore.

I wouldn't say its depressing, but I'm just taking a Buddhist approach to this by letting it run its course. There are those that dwell in this state for so long that it consumes them entirely, but I won't let that happen to me. I'm the kind of person that literally cannot go for months without learning. Besides, I am no stranger to this feeling, having passed through it numerous times.

I just hope this phase, mood, whatever it is, passes swiftly as I have a lot of books to catch up on.
