Idea Post -- Or is this a lack of Idea post...

I'm struggling.  I did a shoot with my friend Michael to kick off my people in their rooms series but looking over the pictures something just felt missing.  I think what was missing was me.  Not to say that all the pictures were horrible, I like them just fine but there was only one I felt anything from which was this one:

I'll post the others tomorrow in my meeting post but this was the only one that really said anything to me.  Maybe that means that this is the direction that I should go in within the series or if it's just further proof that I'm just drawn to darker themes.  I was talking to Sara about my dissatisfaction toward this series and how I feel like I need to focus on myself instead of other people.  She mentioned how it might be worth going back to what I was doing with my concepts project where I was focusing on what I'm dealing with in regard to the effects my step-father's abuse is having on me now, after the fact.  

The only problem there is, I'm not sure where to go with it.  I just feel completely uninspired and I'm not sure what to do about it.  Last week I felt full of excitement and motivation and ideas but now I just don't know what happened.  I feel like I need to have something awakened in me and I don't know what to do to awaken it. So much for an idea today.
