The best way to deal with it would be to write (a diary maybe or a short dialogue), and keep writing. Usually by the end of two weeks, if you've been at it, then the writer's block would have disappeared. Fifteen minutes every day, five days a week is all it takes.(less)

“Someone said long ago that love is blind. It is also senseless, stupid, easily swayed, and gullible.”

Echoes of the Heartland by Mini   Menon
“Remember water...H2O. We all learnt it in school. It is fluid and flexible. It will simmer, boil, evaporate, freeze, and regenerate. It can be contained in a glass if need be. It can spread across wide surfaces. It will turn into light droplets and travel as clouds. Basic science! Life is like water. It adapts.”
