Thinking of Something Else


Your mind likes wandering here and there, it loves losing itself in  a sometimes useless musing over stuff that has nothing to do with what should be your present concern. Besides, your mind enjoys itself in making you worry about possible problems and dangers that will never happen, or it encourages you to waste time in totally irrelevant considerations. It happens that, while you are listening to your interlocutor, you start thinking about a facial trait of theirs, you focus your attention on anything but their words. Other times you do not concentrate on what you, yourself, are doing. You get distracted, so you cannot remember where you put your keys or your  sunglasses. Why does this happen? Because, while putting those objects away, your mind was somewhere else and never registered the action you were carrying out. Another moment of absent-mindedness that made you "unaware" of the present moment.
