  1. the engine idled. haha it reminds me of when we jumped a car for 5 20 year old gay welsh men. then as we were driving away their car stalled out again. but we didn’t turn around to help them. getting lost in quincy ends in really strange incidents. i shouldn’t drive there. i lost my phone that night

  2. I am being idle right now since I am supposed to be finishing my evaluation project, but I am “stumbling” instead. I will have to start on it right after this. Idleness appears to be a malady of Summer. I am feeling the lack of idleness in my life since I am taking classes.

  3. Im always idle, yet idle as im thinking about all the things i want to do, making plans to succeed but i seem to get trapped in my head.Even writing about it there made me stop and think about it for a minute. Funny though, whenever pressures on I can focus extremely well.

  4. Should I consider my imagination to be idle? I have often wondered if my ideas had a purpose. Then again, how many things in everyday life ARE idle? Most of our fears are idle.

  5. Oh, the idle mind of the blissful fool, making such problems for the rest of the ‘civilized’ world. If only we could have the idle hands, the idle hearts, the idle LIFE of the fools, for theirs must be the true happiness of the world.

  6. to be idle is almost impossible if not the body moving in some form the mind moves in circles ever enlarging until finally the body must move in order to fulfill the mind’s imaginings idleness can be bliss but nevertheless leads to some kind of creative endeavor – at least that is my expeience.

  7. to sit still. feels like what most people spend most of their lives doing. it seems like so much time here is wasted instead of people revving things as hard as the pedal allows their foot to go. not really sure why this is. maybe we believe that

  8. Idle. I wonder how idle I get. I am just idling, here and there, nothing to do. I am just plain lazy. So there. What to write. Now, I am just wasting my time and idling. I’m not even sure whether I’m using it right.

  9. and so I find myself again being idle
    doing nothing, just sitting… standing.. sitting…
    thinking of…
    nothing…
    I’m idle
    and what more can I wish for?
    I’m idle

  10. idle is exactly what one hates being. idle is nothing. idle is pensiveness? maybe being idle isn’t all that bad.

    i’d much rather be active then idle. i would much rather improve then be idle.

    I don’t understand why one would want to be in such a state.

    I would not want to be in that state.

  11. at times, the world gives you the freedom to do what you ill when you will it. it is at these times that I find myself and others like me to become idle. We are so over or underwhelmed by the minutiae of our lives that we can simply site and be alone with our thoughts to briefly be at peace.

  12. is doing nothing but doing nothing by doing something that considered nothing by some but not by me of course.

  13. Sound of trucks in the street, idling under my window; faint smell of exhaust; breeze pushing the curtains. I am here and I am there, memories of seasons past, of years past. What I couldn’t stand then is now what I miss, for now I know who I am instead of running away from what I was supposed to be. If I can be, I can be anywhere, even here and even there. So here I am, listening to the sound of the trucks, idling under my window.

  14. The car sat idle on the side of the road as Ellie tried to regain her composure. In the backseat, Phillip cried and screamed at the top of his lungs, throwing a tantrum because he hadn’t been able to finish the pancakes they had left behind. Trembling, Ellie held tightly upon the steering wheel, burying her face into it as she allowed tears to flow.

  16. I was driving along in my car. My girlfriend asked me to stop. I said i prefer when the car is moving at a respectable pace. She said that she enjoyed a still car. Well who would have thought I’d ever have somebody request that my car be still on a highway!

  19. Abandon. Something that you’ve completely ignored and have already been forgotten. Or perhaps sometimes it could be, someone…

  21. she wore him down with whining. He went to the meditatation class, was told to free his mind, make it clear. He sat on the floor, legs crossed painfully and triad to be idle. He peeked from behind one eye closed. And chuckled at the others who were having similar problems as his.

  22. this word can mean so much to a person feeling something indifferent. Idle can be expressed in so many ways, Being still, staying by yourself not doing anything in particular, all that can be translated to many different meanings.

  23. My car just sat and sat, there in the middle of traffic. Horns honked. People screamed. I never thought I could ever murdered. Until this moment. Until my car went…idle.

  24. I don’t really care about it, I’m pretty apathetic. Most people call me lazy, but I don’t feel that way. I guess I am. I guess I’m not worth that much, that when I hate standing because it hurts my back after a while, I guess that’s laziness. Idleness. Whatever.

  25. my hands are moving, fingers rapping
    feet are tingling, toes are tapping
    though you say it isn’t much
    idle dies with music’s touch

    by Penny on 08.06.2009
  26. Is how my brain goes when it’s dulled on the spent thrill of last night. Hearing still fuzzy from music too loud for me to recognise. I get on the bus and I shout my destination to the driver because I cannot hear and he doesn’t know where my stop is.

  27. My friend on yahoo remained idle and it really kinda bothered me, idk why but that word fro someone who’s online juts kinda gives off the image that a person isnt really there, that they’re just kinda standing there not really listening to a damn word you say while you sit there and talk. I mean, he was a dick, I didnt wanna talk to him anyways, but the idle thing didnt really help.

  28. walking along the platform, my hands played with the buttons on my coat. i was there hours before a train screeched to a stop alongside me. and then there he was, striding toward me idly, with a playful smile.

  29. do nothing enjoy it look at the clouds and make a wish jump for joy run after the sun leapfrog doodle run away for a day take time to look feel the wind against your face when you die its all gone so be idle and live longer play and smile laugh and cry are you idle after all how can you be idle when everywhere there is life unfolding and small miracles happening right in front of your eyes your nose your teeth your ears your feet your hands your skin you can feel it all happening you are a part of it right now time is rushing on regardless you are speeding to an ending so enjoy the journey I say

  31. Speak all thy thoughts, O Thinker; marshal thy thoughts like phalanxes of horse, scatter the idle dreamers of the time.

  32. Idle is all about people who are not bothered to do anything. Someone who is idle is generally lazy, uncaring, bored, and does not have much enthusiasm for their actions. Idlism is an active religion in America, and many people there suffer from severe obesity and other idle-related diseases.

  35. I want to create something, but it simply won’t come out of me. I suppose it feels more comfortable inside, tearing muscle from tendon. It hates me.

    by Timothy on 08.06.2009
  36. I am idle, but not for long. I can do so many things. so many projects to complete, but I do not want to start something new. I will idle away my time staring at the full moon….

  40. i think of stillness, alone, waiting, i just think about staying in one spot, usually alone. pending. impending. i think of left 4 dead because when you aren’t playing you’re considered idle. sitting. Just kind of chilling there. The end.
