The Boredom

Regular life being what it is, and so many of us experiencing it, little can actually be interesting. Expression therefore, becomes the thing that keeps us from inertia.


When I become bored, I become boring to others as well.


But when engaged, the Tree of Life, or football, or sitting very still become fascinating, and descriptions of them flower in entertainment.


But the boredom is so easy. Is it like recharging? Like sleeping? Does coffee cheat us of quality boredom? Do we cheat ourselves of better entertainment by cramming too much of it into our days?


Is my boredom bringing me to similar conclusions usually reserved for stoners, drunks and philosophers?
