"But my heart really needs to be on fire to write."
No you just need to write. It doesn't matter what it is. A sentence, a poem, whatever, you just write. If you wait for the "passion" to overwhelm you, you're going to be waiting forever. It's like M. You don't wait for love to come, you practice it and it comes naturally.
"But as far as her believing, that's not going to happen for a LOONG time. "
Mindreading. If you keep saying this, it will take a long time.
"I totally need to work on my listening skills. Funny that can't really practice with W right now."
Yes you can. You have kids together, you're going to have to interact. Start there.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
