hello dudes, dudettes and everyone who doesn’t wish to fall under those titles! did you have a good week? we hope so. you deserve it. we’ve gained another 48 members since this time last sunday, bringing the total to 850, so an extra loud ‘hello’ in their direction! this week we tackle the subject of boredom.
boredom can grab hold of you at anytime of the day, but especially when you have work to do which you are putting off, or indeed, when you have nothing to do at all!
boredom is probably the second most often used answer to the question ‘how are you?’ closely following tired. we’re all over-stimulated by television and computers and all sorts of things like that – which feed us large amounts of information in a short time. when we don’t have this we get bored because the real world doesn’t offer such rapidly changing environments and situations. obviously things happen, but what if nothing ever happened? we would sit infront of the tv and this would be the situation:

in order to combat this ‘boredom’ that everyone supposedly feels – this week’s finds will hopefully give you some things to do, if only for a few minutes…

[some inspirational words to finish this message]
“Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.”
Abraham Lincoln (1809 – 1865)
next time somebody asks you how you are, think before you answer. if you do feel bored, do something about it! if you feel tired, then you need more sleep or to slow down a bit! if you’re happy, share it! the world is not a boring place, it is what you make it. if you’re bored – go out and do something, see a friend, go and explore the world! you’re all brilliant people and the world needs more like you. go out and cheer other people the fuck up! remember to be safe and take care of yourself, and have an awesome week!
Lots of love,
Bex+ Sam.
