Mind goes for a walk

Have you ever felt like you were talking to someone or sitting in a meeting and you suddenly realise that you don’t know what happened in the last 2- 3 mins? I have felt that sometimes.. Either when the other person is too boring or they are saying something totally irrelevant to why they are there.. (there are loads of people who are that way.. But that is a topic for another blog  :)).

I call it "The mind goes for a walk" syndrome.. I have always wondered what the other person sees when my mind goes for a walk.. Do they realise I am not listening to them? Do they see some kinda change either in my facial expression or my demeanor?.. Something I definitely am curious to know.

Anyway, I have sometimes tired to think about the association the mind makes. Have you ever started thinking about something and 5 mins later you are thinking about something totally not related to what you first started off with? I wonder how and why this happens. Sometimes I have tried to walk back on each of my thoughts.. Tried to look at the association my mind is making and it is fascinating to do that. I think you should all try it. Sometimes I have found answers to many of my unanswered questions. What I cant figure out in my conscious mind, my subconscious has brought it out in the open… truly fascinating

When something is troubling me.. I go back to the first time I felt the feeling and then walk through the whole thing step by step.. This either tells me where I went wrong, so I can correct it or by the time I reach the present, the problem isnt as big anymore and life goes on.. Either way.. There is no point pondering over things that arent going right.. Ponder over things that will make it better..

I am not into philosophical blogging or trying to preach.. So please don’t stop reading my blogs :) And next time you think i am spaced out, ask me if my mind went for a walk :):)
