There is this profound silence in my head and all around me when I think. Which is always. Lost in thoughts is a phrase you can associate me with. I think so much that I end up being unrelated to the world I am supposed to be in. I hear fuzzy noises of people speaking, images blur before my eyes and everything in motion is suspended. I have favourite places to think. Leading the list is my white-tiled bathroom. Most jobless Saturday afternoons were spent there, thinking. And I end up forgetting what I was thinking about. Almost always.
I think faster than I write. It's extremely hazardous. Precious quotes and topics have been lost this way. Before I can pen down a few sentences, my mind is racing with the next set. My memory fails me. I struggle hard to remember them, but in vain.
Even when I read a book, watch a movie, listen to music, write, cook, eat, or do everything at the same time; I'm thinking. Random thoughts, vague ones. Unrelated stuff.
Thoughts become imagination sometimes. Okay, most of the times. More often than not I find myself day-dreaming. I wish I could be paid to do that. No, really! I have built stories in my head. Stories that have a beginning but no ending. Ones that start off pensively, that end up nowhere. Like this post.

Deja-vu. Thats the most succinct way in which I can sum up the reaction that was "racing" across my mind while reading this post.
Whatever your mind is stricken with most of the while is something that I can probably call my "inheritance" too.( Hopefully it doesn't morph into one "of loss" ;) ) Barring the fuzzy noises of people speaking :P
Thinking faster than one can write. How many marks it has cost me in an innumerable number of exams!!!
Jokes apart. I believe its a pretty serious issue that has to be reined in its most benign state ;)
Both of us would have long displaced Carlos Slim and Bill Gates if we were "moolah"-ed for doing what we have ever since fully and consciously knowing what we have ;)
Ok the previous sentence was my attempt at jabberwocky :P :P
"Ones that start off pensively, that end up nowhere. Like this post."
REALLY LOVE THIS LINE!!!!
I have to safely say that I do not understand what you write. Having said that, I fully appreciate your comments nevertheless :)
And customary thanks to you, I love that line as well!
