Put yourself in a public place, out in the open, and divorce yourself from everything (church is a good place to try this). Begin watching people until you find someone doing a completely thankless task; shelving books, mopping a floor, folding clothes. When you feel a wave washing over your brain, much like a pins and needles effect, it's working. Don't fight it. Soon you will be an observer from a different perspective; that of the person you were watching! I told you it was weird. Your brain and body are left completely behind like a TV that has been shutoff and crackles with static electricity.
The spell can be snapped in several ways: when you want it to, when the person your watching stops what their doing, or if someone physically touches you. You will feel like being awoke from a deep sleep. Refreshed, confused, rebooted. Try it. Get disconnected.
I know that you are trying to describe the feeling you get when you "zone out" (my words, not yours). I am troubled, however, with your categorizing some tasks that others do as "worthless" (your words). You have a lot of great insight and ideas to share. Choose your words carefully. Love, Sioux
ReplyDeleteIt was not my intent to categorize tasks that people do as 'worthless'. The people and/or their jobs are not worthless, it is the tasks themselves that are worthless.
ReplyDeleteOk I had to reread this like four times and I never read worthless anywhere. Anyway what you describe also sounds a lot like some types of seizures. Very interesting. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteInterested to know just what church you go to where shelving books, mopping a floor, folding clothes takes place when someone could sit and stare at them without drawing attention.
ReplyDeleteThanks for changing worthless to thankless. I'll see you at the race. Sue
