Writer's Block: The missing piece

[Error: unknown template qotd]

Nothing. It's all here. Show me any of those other answers and I can probably point you at an example of it. Most of those I've seen seem to be based on the idea "well, I am a shining example of this quality, so I think there should be more of it," which (even if it's true, and mostly it is) is not what I understand by "missing."

If more people used more of the love in their hearts, tried harder to understand each other, and to judge and condemn less, that would be good, but again, it's not "missing." And I am as bad as anyone else in that respect.

Isn't this what a lot of speculative fiction is about - trying to imagine what is missing? The world is missing a way to know what, if anything, comes before and after life, just for starters.

I am not sure it makes sense to say that the world is missing a way to know something that may not exist.
