Has this ever happened to you?

Sometimes I find myself deep in thought, my mind wandering literally in a different time and in a different world, all sense of reality lost, and I find that I'm holding my body completely and totally still.  For a split second I feel perfectly content.  Nothing is wrong in the world.  Everything... everything is good.  But the second passes quickly, for I suddenly realize I've stopped breathing.

I often leave reality through little daydreams, but they usually involve breathing. I like the description of the moment, though.
