The Art of Nothing

Probably the most difficult thing that I have had to face in my life is doing nothing. I remember for a brief time in my teenage years where I felt I was really just doing nothing all day long. What was that like? Nowadays, I actually try to do nothing and then I end up doing a bunch of things that I need to do but have not got to. How is it even possible to do nothing? I wonder if I really was determined, could I actually create a day, perhaps even a half a day, where I did absolutely nothing?
