I think there is a definite need for silence in my life. Silence in which I am not calling someone, facebooking, emailing, studying, watching tv, or exercising. I am lacking time with my own thoughts and because of that I have felt emotionally confused for the past few weeks. What do I think about issues X, Y, and Z? Well, I couldn't tell you because I have just added them to the pile in the back of my brain to think about later. I yearn for the time when my head isn't spinning with thoughts and I am bored in the silence.
To facilitate time for sorting out my thoughts I've decided what must be done: I will watch no television until Friday evening. That means no Dancing with the stars tomorrow after my long day of classes, no HGTV at lunch on Tuesday and Thursday, no news, no hulu between classes, no youtube---zip. zilch. nothing.
I am looking forward to having time to day dream and be bored--lost arts in today's technology driven world.
