Staring at the ceiling

[Diango12]

Today is Sunday and for me its always boring for the greater part of the whole day. So I laid on my bed and stared at the ceiling. But I'm not very good at this thing. Daydreaming. My thoughts were random, and I couldn't pay attention to any one image flying through my head. Problems, worries, thoughts of my ex girlfriend.

That's when I popped in 'This Will Destroy You - Strings' and closed my eyes through the opening acoustics. No words, just music. I rolled over a few times and finally settled when I no longer noticed the music playing. That was the moment. I just let it carry me then.

I passed the whole day pretty much the same way. Have you ever just laid on your bed and daydreamed? Well anyway, here is the song that helped me today. BTW its been several years since I posted on Eoff. I'm glad its still here.

I listened, stared at ceiling, closed my eyes, and fell fast asleep.

Reminded me of A Perfect Circle for a bit at the beginning, but then I got swept away by its beauty and simplicity. Excellent.

The correct answer is to put on your 12" Kind of Blue LP and melt into a chair after lighting up your seventy dollar Cuban cigar (now rolled by real orphaned children) and pouring a glass of Hennessy.

Have you ever just laid on your bed and daydreamed?

I do it on a daily basis, but then I'm constantly in a state of daydreaming.

I do this every now and then, usually a couple of times a month or so. I'll chill out for a day or so just doing nothing but think through my life, come to terms with the mistakes I've made and the here and now. Accept that the here and now is nothing more than where I need to be right now and that everything that has happened to me is on me and always has been. After a day where I do this I'm good. People often mistake the days where I do this for days where I'm depressed or down because I can go the whole day without speaking a word to anyone, yet this isn't the case, I just need some time to myself to balance out who I am again. Music is a very important part of this process and of this song I approve!

We do the same thing Iceglow. I wonder if anyone else takes a day off from life to reflect on things.

About what? Do you listen to music while daydreaming?

Music - sometimes, but usually not.

As for what about - it varies; I like to let my mind carry me where it will. Usually stories, images, symbols, and characters spring unbidden to my mind and then if I like them, I remember them, and write about them later.

I do my very best not to get out of bed on Sundays.

That is why you are the master, and we are but your humble servants. I mean pupils. Or retinas? Something.

If I relax for too long, then I sleep.

You have no idea how lucky you are.

[Jiro]

I find it hard to relax

[fire_of_avalon]

Me too. If I don't have something to do I generally get depressed.

[NorthernChaosGod]

When I have time to kill, I like to try and watch some TV shows from bed. I always get sleepy though.

This is the reason I can't cuddle for to long. My ex girlfriend was always heart broken when I fell asleep after fifteen minute of laying down.
