Boredom

Boredom


The two foes of human happiness are pain and boredom. -Arthur Schopenhauer


A recent dinner companion of mine asked me, "Leo, am I boring?" I decided to be honest. "Yes, I'm afraid you are.You've been boring for years." "Really?" "Yes, and the reason you are boring is because you are bored: bored in life." "What should I do?" "Find the music in life, the spiritual rhythm that makes your existence come alive. And when you find it, dance to it." Don't think I haven't had that conversation with myself, often. Today I'm dancing.

I'm holding the tail of God's tiger. And it's exciting.
