When I was younger, it was a struggle for me to get going in the morning and get ready for school - or anywhere for that matter. Needless to say I was not a morning person. Often times I would just start to zone out right in the middle of doing something, like tying my shoe. It was as if someone pushed the pause button and I instantly had this glazed looked on my face.
One morning while getting ready for school, my mom passed by my room to make sure I was going to be ready on time. She stopped in the doorway to witness me in one of my zoning out moments and asked me what I was doing. Knowing we were running late for school I didn't want to tell her I was zoning out. I needed to seem more productive so instead I told her "I'm thinking thoughts." She then replied, "well think thoughts while you tie your shoe or you'll be late for school."
While I'm still not a morning person, I find myself 'thinking thoughts' during my zone out moments. Not all are thought provoking or productive, but the ones that are can lead down interesting paths at times. This blog will be sort of a pit stop for those thoughts.
