Doing meditation

I sometimes do meditation, and yesterday, the book "Even Happier" that I am currently reading suggests that doing meditation is good for me, in the book, I was directed to think about what I helped somebody in the past, and reexperience how you feel, and next think about how you are going to help somebody. And I noticed that the real effect of meditation.
In today's society, we are in the full of information, computers are everywhere, moreover advanced cell phone which contains web browser and information collection tool like iphone, and mobile gadget like iPad makes it more intense. We can connect to the sea of information anywhere, anytime. Every single piece of time could be time for web-browsing. Like waiting for trains, taking a bath, going to toilet, even when eating. This seems really productive and no-waste of time, from a perfectionist view. I was the one who wanted to do this. But isn't it important to have a empty time? which you don't think nothing.
When you have empty time, your brain begins working, I think it is categorizing and reorganizing your memories, you may experience strange action of brain, I always remember anything, like old memories and a little trauma, and so on. That's important. If you continue to input information, brain has to work to process the stream of information, and that means it can not reorganize what you got so far.
And meditation is good exercises for perfectionist, like it was for me, because doing nothing is unacceptable for them. Meditating is actually "doing nothing", but by naming that as "meditating", it becomes doing something for even perfectionist. And it works, I think sometimes we should do meditating, like when your brain doesn't work at all, I think your brain is tired of getting information and requires time to process those. Actually, yesterday I felt my brain does not work properly, and once I did meditating, I really could concentrate on reading.
