Boredom or Being?
It’s crazy how much we hate “doing nothing”. we claim we’re bored because we have been told we ALWAYS have to be doing something. We have to be working, going to school otherwise you’re lazy…read a book but maybe those moments don’t require us to do anything. Maybe they are there to remind us we aren’t required to do ANYTHING, nothing we do makes us any more special. Maybe those moments are lessons from the Universe teaching us to Be. Since we are human Beings. I’m sure plants and animals don’t try and fight being able to just Be…they’re content with it.Maybe we should just accept it. Embrace our “boredom” and Be. Meditate, get in touch with our inner God

I have struggled with this since I was a teen. I have been taught and accepted that action means accomplishment. Until finally I just couldn't do anymore. Grad School, Travelling, home ownership, relationships, family and the general ups and downs of life leave me exhausted. I love boredom and I feel very at peace doing nothing!
