13th feb - slowing down
there was an article in guardian? i think? saw via kottke? someone spent 24 hours in a forest, doing nothing. literally nothing. nothing was brought that would enable action to do something. like reading or camping or even eating. nothing. for 24 hours. literally sitting in a space surrounded by trees doing nothing for 24 hours.
of course he emerged from that experience with profound insights and somethings while being utterly bored.
i think i'm tired because there are so many things going on in my brain. scatterbrained is right. but it is also the standard human reaction to at least be doing something at any point of time even when you're at work and you're not doing work.
i would like to try slowing down.
