Aside from the obvious reason people love to shower, it’s the perfect “me” time. When you’re in the shower alone, you shed off your inhibitions. You can bust a move that you’ll never do in public.
You can sing a full playlist to your heart’s content without the ribbing you usually get from friends. You can light a candle and let the water wash out both your physical and emotional dirt. And in the shower, you get the weirdest or the most fascinating ideas. Showering is usually when light-bulb moments happen.
It’s not unheard of that an owner of a big business got the idea for his product while showering. Musicians usually formulate song lyrics and melodies when they’re alone in the bathroom. Even students practice their speeches while taking a bath.
The tranquility of shower time clears the mind. It doesn’t matter if what you’ve thought is weird, funny, gross, naughty, heartbreaking or philosophical. When the thought or idea came from your “me” time in the shower, It’s usually entertaining or creative enough to put into action or share with family and friends.
The online world is brimming with collections of funny, creative and inspirational thoughts and ideas that people thought while showering.
Some are as witty as:
- Ellen DeGeneres gives gifts and surprises every day she should just change her name to Ellen DeGenerous.
- iPhone chargers should be called ‘Apple’ juice.
- Using your old computer to search for a new device you’ll buy is like asking your PC to dig its own grave.
Or as thoughtful as:
- A pizza’s shape is round. It’s delivered in a box. And you cut it into triangles.
- Your tombstone’s epitaph is like your final status update.
- Have you ever wondered what your pet named you?
Shower thoughts, even trivial ones, can make your day and inspire you to do more, encourage you to be more creative or just make you laugh silly. So the next time you take a shower, why don’t you take notice of what comes to your mind? In the meantime take a look at other people’s intriguing realizations.
