Blank

You know that feeling you get when you are staring at the computer or paper trying to think.  The BLANK feeling, or stare as some would call it.  The one where you get lost in another world where you are really not doing anything.

You are focused on nothing and lost in everything.  You journey to a place of peace even though the chaos is all around you.  Your thoughts and mind go to break mode and it takes a minute to come back.  Sometimes you can even talk while in your trance, but you cannot break the stare.

What is it that makes us go THERE?  Why does our mind have to force us to take a break because we won’t give ourselves one?  Would these still occur if we took better care to relieve our minds of the day to day stress it suffers through?

My two cents.
