Oh gaaad, I’ve never been bored like this before. Sometimes it is so hard to get out of this rut. It hits me when least expected. After a long week, it was time for me to sit back and take rest, do something like- reading books, talking, outing or watching a movie( if the hostel warden allows!) So as usual i got up, went through my morning habits, had a little bit of fun with my roomies and waited for the movie time, as all my friends were out of town and no books left to read, i planned to watch a movie. But lol!here comes the most non sorted problem in Kerala, POWER FAILURE. I felt so bad and cursed the government for putting up all the regulations and went up to my room murmuring under my breath.
What to do next, i sat for sometime looking through the magazines and here comes a topic, BOREDOM. I quickly became conscious and started reading the whole thing and understood that once it sets in, then your senses go numb. One fails miserably in a lot of things for mind is elsewhere. The wound is not healed and rather blocks our neurons ending, which in fact stops sending signal of pain to the brain. So, we do not feel the razor sharp scrapping of our nerves when one is in pain. It also inflicts us, as in a way its pangs subdue us and we are totally insensitive to our surroundings, the presence of others and even their feelings at work. So what is to be done is simply break-out of it! Dont be terrified of boredom. Reading through all this, i felt i should check out for some other leisure than my usual stuff and just be fresh , so that I dont feel stressed out in front of my colleagues at work. So i got dressed up quickly, went to the park, took a stroll, had some nuts, thought about the many things I need to do in the following days and came back totally relieved and energetic thinking ‘HOW A BOOK CAN INSPIRE ME’.
Great way to turn around boredom I must say, it’s all in the mind really.
