It's funny. I've got an always-connected phone. The stupidity of the internet, the libraries of the world, all at my fingertips. What do I do on the bus? I stare out the window and daydream. Perhaps it's me not wanting to get motion sick, but it's nice to do it sometimes. I can let all the voices in my head have a quiet conversation. Or think about space ships. Or giant robots. Or giant robot space ships.
Apparently downtime is a good idea to do and let your brain recharge. That's one of the things that I loved about biking into work - I'd be about 10 minutes into my ride and then (just like running) my brain would hit a groove and things would feel so smooth and fluid. Thoughts would be like a smooth flowing creek rather than a dog playing in a puddle. Perhaps a poor visualization. Think smooth and everything in it's place but moving with speed vs flow from all direction and chaotic.
So if you see me walking along and watching the clouds or the wind in the grass, just know that I'm recharging my brain and coming up with brilliant ideas. Or thinking about Star Wars. Actually it's probably best to just assume I'm thinking about Star Wars.
