Daydream

246 what I think about when I’m not listening

Imagine being in a long, everlasting, and boring devotion where none of the words that is continuously flying out of the speaker’s mouth go through your ears. Your eyes are not even focused on the speaker but rather outside the window.  Eyes are fixed and became non-movable even when hands are waved right in front of them. It is the process of daydreaming. Daydreaming can happen at any time and anywhere. In this process, the daydreamer is usually thinking and has thoughts running around in his/her brain without any or little conscience present.

When the daydreamer is daydreaming, nothing else matters and many thoughts or worries run through from each corner of the brain to the next. Sometimes we are so deep into this process that even when a person is trying to bring us back into the reality (the boring devotion sadly) with their voices or pokes, we can see nothing. We feel nothing except the feeling and emotions inside us.

I daydream a lot and most of the times I only realize it after one of the people around me wakes me up from my perfect dream land. I can never remember what happen in the dream, but if lucky it is all just a blur. Daydreaming is not the only thing that goes through my mind when I am not listening or paying attention to the surroundings.  I usually think about what worries me the most; maybe tests, family, or friends. I would also often think of the possibilities in my life. In these times the questions that kept running around in a circle in my head are what if and why not. I often think; what if I never came to Woodstock and what would have happen differently.  However every single time when I am about to get answers to my questions, someone has to interrupts me and end up bringing me back into the reality; the devotion.
