Day 85 "Boredom And The Mess We Make"

Boredom. It doesn't matter who you are does it? It is going to trip you and smother you to the ground at some point.

There really is no way to avoid this one thing. Boredom is simply a necessary evil in this life.

I find it interesting to think about the many ways that some of us choose to overcome the weight of boredom, how we attempt to distract a mind that has no interest in anything at all.

Eat more.

Sleep more.

Attach ourselves to the television more.

Drink more.

Smoke more.

Inject more.

Contemplate more.

Analyze more.

Build empires.

Bring down temples.

Create more.

Set our lives on fire even more.

Try to force the will of Time The Thief to take us to the ending faster.

For some, making a mess of things gives us a purpose in having to clean them up afterwards.

This seems to propel most of into action doesn't it?

Make a mess. Clean it up. Wash, rinse and repeat.

Over and over and over until we have no time for boredom at all.

Eventually though your house will be clean...and then it will be time to set it on fire once again.
