Pondering

Have you ever just sat somewhere and thought about everything and nothing all at the same time? I do, often. I laugh at myself for how truly silly I can be. Being female, I overanalyze little things. I tend to stew over ideas like a cow chews its cud. Over and over I toss them around until all flavor and zest is gone. Morning is my favorite time of day as I get ready for work. I shower, make breakfast, drink coffee, watch the news, and ponder as I do my hair and make up. I love the slow pace of it all and wouldn't trade it for anything. I find extreme peace in knowing I am mentally prepared to tackle the day ahead. Is it possible that thinking relieves stress? In my case, I think it must.
