“Studies show that people would rather do something—anything—than be alone with their thoughts. The idea that doing something trumps doing nothing is no new phenomenon. But it's through reflection, daydreaming, and introspection that we make sense of information and experiences and come up with new insight and ideas.” (@lifehacker.com)
Well, human ideologies are numerous, but the mind influenced by the word of God is free from unnecessary wander!
