What occupies your mind?


Recommended Posts

I often wonder what types of subjects are uppermost in people's minds. What is it that you find yourself pondering about most when responsibilities or other 'mandated' thoughts aren't taking up that space?

zoom in on a typical scene in 2sides' bedroom...no, this is not going to be graphic, sorry to disappoint you...

 

2sides: mumbling What could I possibly do that would help me to avoid actually working on my "Dog Domestication" project?

 

we see 2sides slouching in her computer chair, idly chewing at the corner of a thumbnail. She stops chewing and proceeds to type a few words. The computer screen flashes briefly...

How to get my daughters to skip the teenage years....

 

Actually my thoughts are pretty general, right now it is how often can I golf this summer.

 

There is one thing I wonder about though (as of lately). My parents were divorced when I was about five, and my father remarried shortly later and was married for 22 years before he passed away. Both my brothers have been married and divorced, I have been married and divorced twice, and my mother waited 20 some odd years and then got married, divorced and married (to another) all within a short amount of time. So I wonder if I (and my brothers) learned something we didn't realize when we were younger ... and it later affected our relationships. :cool:

My mind wonders all over the place.

 

It goes from me thinking about what I think my partner is thinking (usually bad stuff which makes me cry), to stuff I have to do, to horrible thoughts about my loved ones and the kinds of things that can unfortunately happen to them. I lie in bed at night thinking about a drive by shooting happening and the damage that would cause to me and my family. If my daughter has a knife or something, my mind thinks about the worst case senario if she has an accident with it...

 

My mind is broken :(

I'm always thinking about improving myself. I'm always thinking about something I need to do, should be doing. Sometimes I take breaks and focus on other things, but then when I get back, I'm obsessive to make up for lost time.

To stop obsessing over the past and move on. I keep looking for a clear sign of what to do with my life and I feel none are forthcoming. In the meantime I try to figure out what action to take to break out of this limbo.

I think most women will be able to agree with me on this one!

 

I think about WHAT I HAVE TO DO, like laundry, what bills to pay, what cards I have to sent this month, amongst other things.

 

Now I think about the path to my future the most, like studying for the GRE exam, winning the lottery so I can buy a 2 million dollar loft in SOHO, investing my money properly so my children can go any college they choose, and most importantly, how I can make a difference in the world....

in random order:

 

- glimpses of previous conversations

- imaginary conversations/situations with people i know, or know of

- who i am, what i'm like, why i'm like this, how would i like to change, what do i want to do with my life

- how do i make my field fit my desire to do something good for the humanity

- how are my parents going to manage once i move out; how am I going to manage on my own

- what i like/dislike about the people i know - or rather what i'd like to learn from them

- about the book i'm reading

- about mental health meds and the significance of their effect on people

 

I guess i'm pretty self-centered... oh well, heck - i'm in my early 20s, it's the time to be selfish ;)

 

that's what comes to mind when mundane thoughts aren't taking over! right now, i must block out everything but the upcoming exam *sigh*

-yes

 

PS what about you, moi?

As of now I think about what truly is making my life so terrible. I'm not sure if I just put stuff in to my head and make it hard or if it truly is a difficult life.

Myriads of thoughts occupy my mind. I am hardly ever without several thoughts at once. I do not feel comfortable describing what it is that I think of most often.

My mind is virtually NEVER devoid of thoughts rattling around.

 

At the moment...thoughts centre around... marriage/dreams of wedding day; how much money we have saved, and if we'll have enough to make it around Australia on our planned year long trip next year, my partner, our relationship, what he's thinking of me, how I feel about him...and well...me, whether I'm being a good enough person to others and my OCD. Why it's there, how I'm going with it...plus, my mum of course, her health, her finances, and my grandma's state, and when she might need fulltime care.

 

My thoughts pretty much bounce around from one of those subjects to the other.

She's Come Undone

Right now I'm thinking about the poor dude from England who can't get over his ex-girlfriend and is driving me crazy with his rantings. Maybe he should try and help other people in the Shack de Amor instead of wallowing in is self-pity!

 

Lately I've been thinking about my best friends decision to date my ex-boyfriend. That takes up a lot of time for various reasons.

 

I wonder if I'll find someone, have more children, the basic stuff single mom's think of.

 

I wonder if I have a sleep disorder. LOL I wake up exhausted every morning, and if given the opportunity, would sleep until noon every day!
