its "idle hands are the devils plaything". get it right. no one else seems to get it either. the adage means keep busy lest you get into trouble. "mind" and "playground" are not part of the adage.

I sure do. The more free time I have, the more I think about myself, and the more I love/hate myself. I just have to keep myself occupied, or else I can get really depressed! Tried and true...
But I think it's "idle hands are the devil's workshop." Sorry.

false. there is no such thing as pure good or pure evil, in my opinion. everything good is tainted, everything cruel is bleached, if only the tiniest bit. but that doesn't mean human beings have to act on cruelty. evil and darkness don't come from the mind; they come from ignorance.

I think that every mind needs time to rest. Just as our body needs sleep to function, day dreaming or thinking of nothing is just as good.
