What do we mean when we say that the mind wanders? Simply that thought is everlastingly enticed from one attraction to another, from one association to another, and is in constant agitation. Is it possible for thought to come to an end?

I have no wings, but still I fly in the sky; I have no magical power, yet like magic I journey throughout realms of illusory display, here and there, in nine directions, exploring the connections of my karma. ~ Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche

In a fevered state, you project a past and a future onto the present moment. The present is boundless yet you persist in clinging to these projections. With a cool mind investigate carefully from where they come and go and discover the timeless reality behind them.
