Do you have time to just sit and think of nothing?  email this discussion to a friend?

My dad shared his new-found joy of just sitting and thinking of nothing. He told us he hasn't done that in well over a decade now and he was glad he had done that a few days back.

It made me wonder though, with all the hustle and bustle of our lives, we can't really find the time to stop thinking of our concerns and just to sit still. I too am not fortunate in that sense because there are just far too many concerns in my life.

Do you still find time to just sit and think of nothing?

It makes me feel relaxed when I do so. A sort of 'release' to the world full of worries.

I think it is easier to sit and think of something rather than nothing, lol.
Although I enjoy it, but I feel that it is a kind of wasting time. I will do that when I am staying with my girlfriend or having meal.
Enjoy myLotting:)

Hi, laydee happy

I do not have much time for that these days but I really like doing it. Yes, you are right, it is kind of relaxing, a stress-reliever. I usually do that when I am eating alone (which is not very often), or, unconsciously, when I sit back and kind of "lose" myself. Just staring into space, realizing only after a while that I stopped moving lol

Have a nice day! cool

HI Laydee,

Too bad, I don't have any free time to just sit down and think of nothing.
My time is super precious and I always fully utilized my time properly.

I am a full-time housewife,most of my time is for my kid,doing housechores and in between I might have some free time to have a nap for a while or simply surfing nets.
Nowadays, I can only have free time to online at night,about 3-4 hours only and it is really not enough for me.
For me, my time is always not enough,24 hours a day is simply gone very fast.

If I really have some free time, I might use it to surf net or do whatever work that I have been delaying it for quite some time. Of course, it does not mean I am like a robot and does not need a break. I do watch Television everyday,reading magazine and chatting /SMS-ing with my friends and family members.

One thing for sure, I won't simply sit down and think of nothing in my life,It is just wasting my time.

Hmm interesting discussion .I never tought about it but I think that I usually have time to think while I am on the bus but it is usually something because like you said there is always something to think about .I think though that I havent had one of those times to think about nothing but like you said it would be a therapeutic luxury

I used to do that when i was still young. I was kind of having a lot of problems when I was in high school plus, I use to be a very passive person and thinking about nothing is like my escape from all those problems. Its kind of really relaxing but after doing it I would usually lose my sense of reality and end up frustrated knowing that I would be dealing with my problem again. So I was kind of sick doing it, so I stopped although I still do it every now and but not as usually it was before.

Well, to be honest I can't stop thinking about my life, even a second before I sleep. I don't know why and seems like I want to deal with it until I end it as the winner. =) And about sit and think of nothing, I don't think I've ever done that in my recent life. =) I can't stop thinking, thinking and thinking. I'm very very strict with my precious time and I make the most of it at all.

my life is so busy. and i really can't find any free time to do that. but i hope i will have the time to think about what i want to do. is it good for your father to do this job? just sit and think of nothing. i think sometimes, some old people just like to work or move a little bit. that help their fitness.
