Mindless thinking; now there's an oxymoron if I ever heard one. I like it though. It makes sense to me. For some people mindless thinking is actually an accomplishment because they're so brain dead throughout the day as it is.
My mind is always zooming backwards and forwards in time. Presently I'm thinking about the future while simultaneously remembering the past.
I like to think about the origins of the universe. It's fascinating, really. I can't imagine everyone ever agreeing on the same how-it-all-began theory. Not in this lifetime at least. There is so much we don't know. We barely explored all the land-masses in the last 100 years. That's not even including the ocean depths. Forget space being the final frontier. I think we're getting ahead of ourselves. Let's divert our attention to proving whether giant squids exist or not by exploring the ocean depths.
Occasionally there are times when my mind goes completely blank. I'll think too far ahead in my lifetime and my mind will short-circuit. It's hard to imagine the future without yourself being around. It's not in our best interest. After all, our basic instincts are to survive and replicate. Why would anyone want to waste their time thinking so far ahead like that? I don't know.....but my mind just blew another fuse.
