Procrastinating?

We often hear the saying that "people come to our lives for a reason, season or a lifetime".

I know I have said this a million times and to a large extent, I truly believe in this.
Recently, I found that people around us especially the ones who know us and care for us are usually the ones who have a better view of what we really are and need. This could be because they are looking at us with no attachment to things we are facing but merely looking at us as a whole and what we are capable of. On the other hand when we look at ourselves in the mirror, we choose to see what we want to see to see, and justifying ourselves for who we think we are and what we think we can be or do.

I enjoy writing or maybe writing helps me in my day to day life. Why? I guess besides expressing what I feel on a quote or a particular chapter in my life, it also answers most of my questions and doubts that I may have or am facing. Be it a difficult situation, a happy moment or a stressful time. Writing comes out effortlessly, naturally and spontaneously.
When I write, it brings out what I feel into perspective and as I write I find the answers I am looking for; most of the time, answers that were already there but were blocked with emotions, thoughts and confusion.

Despite knowing that, it has been almost 5 months since I did my usual writing. Each time I'd start, I'd doubt myself, afraid of being judged and would end up finding an excuse and blame it on the busy life schedule, or the fact that I was having a writer’s block.
I realize now that I was just procrastinating but not really understanding why. But the act of a simple gesture from a good friend, getting me a book to help remove the block I was “so called” facing was enough to get me started. And now as I write, I think to myself, was I really facing a block? Or did I just need someone to believe in me and someone who would not give up on me. I guess that was it, that was just enough to get me started again.

In life, there are many such moments and situations we could be in, where we just need a push, a bit support and faith to get us moving. These are the probably the driving factors, most of us, humans need.
I started off with the saying that “people come to our lives for a reason, season or a lifetime”.

Just as this friend who surely has been there for more than a season and truly for a reason.
