The feeling of nothingness...

Have you ever felt it? Have u ever stopped feeling at all? Ever experienced a weird sensation of "what next?" I am sure you would have, as i do. Yes, some things are strange, inexplicable, uncontrollable, and scary! The feeling of nothingness tops the chart.

Usually, when one has lots of things in his/her mind, lots of work, or atleast something to look upto, the mind is preoccupied, mostly with the anxiety attached with it, and the brain is working full time to come up with solutions to problems. But, that one time, when you tell your mind that its enough, that you want some rest for yourself, and then when you get up, you experience the feeling of nothingness, screaming "what next?" Yes, the mind has become preconditioned to working, and when it does not have anything to do/think about or wonder, it shows its angry side, forcing you to pick up something which could best kill that feeling, and relieve you of the eerie sensation.

The times when you are out of sleep, yet cling to the bed, staring at the ceiling, thinking nothing. How does one explain why we do what we do then? That is, nothing. Does it have a mechanical explanation, or is it something beyond the scope of human mind to explain?

Or, when you have thought that you would do a particular task, but do not seem to manage time in order to do it, don't you experience that longing, a strange motion inside the brain, which says "do it", and does not subside until you actually finish the work. And, once you complete it, a kind of peace prevails over your mind, with a feeling of nothingness, as if the mind's work was over for the moment, and it went into hibernation, for the time being. Thats how i am feeling now, when i am finishing writing the post :)
