Stretch Before Exercise

I've been writing a story, but lately I've been hitting a roadblock.  For instance, last night I wrote the climax of the story...in my mind.  That's right, not a word of it has been recorded yet.  How am I supposed to?  There is no media that covers all that I imagined.  In my mind, it's a movie...but more than that.  How can I describe what I've seen in a book, what I've heard in a manga, or what I felt in a movie?  No one can ever experience what I have just imagined, which saddens me. 

I'm not confidant that I have the skill to write what I have made, I'm years away from being able to draw well enough, and I could never be satisfied with a movie (for various reasons).  How in the world am I going to convey my feelings, my design, my very soul?  As it is, though, not even a little will show through.

The only feasible option (at this time) is book form, so I guess I'll give it my best shot.  Maybe if I warm up by writing in my blog, I will have the courage to write the story too.  Perhaps now that I have stretched, I will not be afraid to exercise.
