Thoughts on pot.

It is amazing how under-rated your pot-time is, in your life... Apart from the natural relief that it brings to you, your pot-time is the time when your mind experiences a flood of ideas and thoughts; if you'd only utilize it.

Examples say louder, so heres what i came up with in the morning:

वोह तहजीब वोह तकल्लुफ आपका
कितना बेशरम था हर एक उफ़ आपका

and this coming out of nowhere, when i don't even do or read shayari; made me rethink of this whole process as an untapped area to actually think about..
As a child, this used to be a good time to revise my lessons; or fabricate revenge plans; or regret the things to which i had witty replies, but just not at the right time; or sulk after having a fight with my brother/mother/father/all of them... but i think, as i became older this process became more and more like an unconscious one, so though my mind was constantly working, i stopped realizing the difference between the normal thoughts and the thoughts during the pot-time... and i don't know if that was a good thing or bad..

So anyways, what makes the pot-time so ideal to exercise your brains??.. i think its the fact, that you're absolutely alone within those four walls, no distractions whatsoever.. combined with the fact that you have nothing else to do; which makes it easier to bring out the latent stuff that is inside of you..and no pun intended!
