Call it the default mode if you will, after the (notorious) Default Mode Network, but you have to admit that, at least when the weather is fine, it is a very nice place to be. Mental otium, just happily daydreaming and entertaining thoughts. You don't know much, the perspectives are limited, but it is so easy, loafing at you ease and floating with each new thought that arises. Can anything be more effortlessly amusing so that you can only laugh at those who would sternly name it identification, or being captured by thought, or the 'small ego'. It is so cozy, such a delight to while away the time, with perhaps a faint memory of green eyes sparkling back at you.
