The Gravity of Thoughts
Write your thoughts, watch them fall, and pop them when you're ready.
📖 Inspired by Real Stories
Worries often feel heavy, like gravity pulling us down. This tool helps you visualize and release them, one thought at a time.
How to Use The Gravity of Thoughts
Type anything that's on your mind into the input box at the bottom—a worry, a reminder, a random thought, or just words that feel good. Hit Enter or tap the arrow button, and your thought becomes a colorful block that falls from the top of the screen. Watch as it tumbles down, bounces off other thoughts, and settles into a pile. Each block has its own pastel color and physics, stacking and rolling naturally.
When you're ready to let a thought go, click or tap it—it pops with a gentle sound and a small burst of particles. If things get too cluttered, use the "Clear All" button in the top-left to pop everything at once in a satisfying cascade. Toggle the sound on or off with the speaker icon in the top-right.
There's no limit to how many thoughts you can add. The space is yours to fill, rearrange, or clear whenever you want. You can drag blocks around before popping them if you like. Play with it however feels right.
Why I Built This
I made this because sometimes my head feels too full. Not in a dramatic way—just that low-level background noise that builds up when you don't have a place to put it. Journaling feels too permanent, talking requires someone to listen, and I wanted something playful. Something that let me externalize thoughts without forcing them into sentences or solutions. Just throw them out there, see them exist for a bit, and pop them when I'm done.
The physics part came naturally. Thoughts don't sit still—they bounce around, pile up, collide with each other. Making them into actual blocks that fall and stack felt right. The pastel colors and soft sounds keep it gentle. This isn't a productivity tool or organization system. It's just a little digital space where thoughts can have weight without being heavy.
You can use it however you want: as a to-do list that doesn't nag, a worry dumping ground, a fidget toy, or just something nice to look at. I like watching the blocks settle and interact. It's oddly entertaining in a way I didn't expect.
Tips for the Best Experience
- Don't overthink what you type—stream of consciousness works best here.
- Try adding thoughts one at a time and watching them fall before adding the next one.
- If you're feeling scattered, add everything on your mind, then clear it all at once.
- The sound effects are subtle but satisfying—turn them on if you haven't already.
- You can drag blocks around before popping them if you want to rearrange the pile.
- No pressure: If it doesn't feel useful today, that's okay—it'll be here tomorrow.
