-idlemology-
The study of one’s thought during the state of idleness. It is theorically believe that when one is in a state of idleness, one is fully aware of its thoughts and it is during that moment that one is thinking about everything in a single moment. This is the zen state of idleness.

Traditionally, we all associate the state of idlness as a time when one is doing nothing. This is the textbook description of idle or idleness. However, if you were to look back in your life, i’m very sure that you will be able to recall a time when you were doing abosulely nothing and just idling at home or at a cafe. How is it possible for you to be able to recall in memory this idle moment when you are in theory “doing nothing”?? Shouln’t it be a blank in your memory that you will not be able to recall?

Personally, I stand by that when a person is idle, it is a quiet moment when one is with oneself. A zen moment that you can be thinking about everything in the world yet its only been 1second of thought.

I’m not saying or promoting that we should be idle all the time, but maybe we should idle once in a while, just to clear our mind and sort of our thoughts. 

This is where I will try to pen my idle thoughts so please forgive me as the topics might be very very random.
