As I have often noted, I don’t sit still well. However, I can sit still for hours IF I have something to do…reading, working on a craft, crocheting, sewing, painting, and even writing. I suppose I could even get lost in the music.
A friend and I was at my Dad’s house and my Dad was listening to some Classical music. The friend was used to seeing her Dad fall asleep in his chair and she thought that’s what my Dad had done. I looked over at him; no he was just lost in the music.
Getting lost in the music can take place in a number of ways…you get so caught up in the music that you forget everything around you; the music consumes your mind to the point that you hear…or even see nothing else.
Depending on what I am doing, hours can go by before I realize the time. Thus the expression, “Time flies when you are having fun.” There is even “getting lost in the moment”…but getting lost would mean a lot more than a moment…
It can be pretty easy to get lost in a good book to the point where you think only a few minutes have gone by but in reality it has been an hour or two.
