I acknowledge that we all need down time in our lives. We need time to relax, refresh, recharge. But, do we need to be "bored"? There was a time when I would have said that boredom is valuable. It teaches us to appreciate the times when we are not bored. It helps us to self-motivate to undo our boredom. Blah blah blah.
Now, I'm not so sure. I have spent a lot of time in my life sitting around, bored. Wasted time.
I saw this on Facebook, and looked it up on the 'net to see if the attribution is correct. It appears to be from comedian Louis C.K. And, I love it!
So, if you are sitting there, feeling bored, do something about it! Realize how lucky you are to just be here! Take a moment to THINK. WRITE your thoughts. TELL someone a story. Take a moment to formulate a plan, then go DO something about it! Whatever it is you decide to do, LIVE this life that you've been given. Don't waste it being bored.
