An Experiment in the Stream of Consciousness Technique

I am sitting here. Just sitting here. Sitting used to be easier.  Chairs used to be more comfortable. How does one find the right sitting posture?  It always feels uneasy. Contributing to a sore feeling in my neck and my lower back.  I change the posture but it does not help.  I just want to sit without feeling my weight pressing against my joints. Why did I stop exercising? Now I get the paycheck. Running always feels so good. When you start you can slowly leave your problems behind. Just focusing on the sensation of running. The beating of the heart, the always faster getting heartbeat. I love it! Then why don’t I do it more often? It is dark outside. It rained for several hours. The air must be great outside. I should go for run. I should definitely go for a run.  But not yet. Not Now. First I have to finish my work for today.

He was sitting on his chair in his dorm room. Sitting used to be easier for him, and chairs more comfortable. How could he find the correct posture?  He always felt uneasy.  The way he sat contributed to the sore feeling in his neck and lower back. Changing the position did not help.  He just wanted to sit without feeling his weight pressing against his joints.  Why did he stop exercising?  Now he got the paycheck. Running always felt so good.  When he ran, he could slowly leave his problems behind. He would just focus on the sensation of running; his heartbeat, his always faster getting heartbeat. He loved it. But then why didn’t he do it more often?  It was dark outside. It had rained for several hours. The air outside had to be great. He had to go for a run. He definitely had to go for a run. But not yet. Not then. First he had to finish his work for the day.

He was sitting in his dorm room feeling uneasy and trying to achieve a comfortable posture. Across the room spread marks of his presence. The bed sheet still lay there how he left it after getting up in the morning.  The desk was covered with a variety of university related documents and the remains of some snacks he had hastily consumed to regain the energy lost through intense learning and work. The naïve reader might think that he was a messy individual, but nothing could be farther detached from the truth. For it was not his lack of orderliness or motivation responsible for the state of his dorm rom. No, only fools would believe that.  The true reason for the mess was that the sheer amount of work he had to do urged him to delay everything not absolutely essential.  About two weeks earlier at the beginning of the Easter holiday  he know that he had t
