Whatever is happening in my life, good bad or otherwise inspires me.

I understand. I experienced writer's block for many years.. Almost a decade. Every time I would try to write, I would just feel frustrated. Then something happened this year.. Totally unexpected. Lyrics and poems started coming to me. The best advice I could give would be the following: - don't try to write. Just stop trying. - accept that you feel frustrated. Embrace it, as weird as that sounds. - instead of trying to write lyrics, try to practice being in touch with your feelings. For me, lyrics come from tapping into how i feel. I can't be inspired if I don't pay attention to what's going on inside me. So pay attention to yourself. Become mindful of your thoughts and emotions. - consider starting a journal. Jot down a few notes about what's on your mind. Get into the habit of expressing your thoughts and feelings in words. At some point, you will become more comfortable putting words to your thoughts and feelings. Then you open yourself up to inspiration and the songs will write themselves. But first, you need to be receptive. Hope this helps, C
