My brain has too many tabs open.
Too many things are grabbing my attention
and I’m processing slow.
It’s a drag.
Like a virus clogging up synapse highways.
My brain has too many tabs open,
It’s information overload
and the wheel is spinning and spinning.
It’s nauseating.
Like a merry-go-round I can’t get off of.
So I’m clearing out and shutting down.
To take a minute
and appreciate the silence and tranquility without the hum of the machine.
It’s serene.
Like a cool, refreshing wave cleansing the mind and soul.
I read an interesting post this morning that got me thinking about how much time I spend on Pinterest, Instagram, and Facebook. I also watch a lot of TV. But I also read and I love to cook/bake and craft. Just last night I made chicken and dumplings for dinner and tea cakes and apple pie cookies for dessert. Today I made a spiky paper ball for a friend at work. So I’m doing my best to disconnect during my free time and it feels nice. :]

A wise post that that leads me to my sitting-crossed- leg position and a bit of meditation. YES, my mind often feels like your top photo and exactly what your poem describes. I’m never happier than when I turn it all off and just…BE. So why don’t we do that more often??

I don’t know why we don’t do it more often, but we definitely should!
