Slavoj Žižek

The moment you realize this you have briefly awakened from the incessant brain chatter. Even if only for a second, it is a welcome relief and an interesting realization of how caught up in your own thoughts you were. And if you can extend that moment a tiny bit longer, by taking a deep conscious breath, or looking around at your surroundings and taking in all the sights and sounds just for a moment longer, you feel recharged.
