Living the Boredom

Today I am feeling bored with things and really concluding that most of life really isn't exciting. It's the same cycle of things over and over and over. You wear your clothes, you get your clothes to the washer, you wash the clothes, you let them sit in baskets for a while, you finally put them away, and then you get them out and where them again to start the cycle.

Or you get out food. You cook some of it, or heat it up, or eat it cold. You put it on a dish. You put the food away. you put the dish somewhere. You then wash that dish and put it away in order to get it out again.

You get up and you are dirty. You get in the shower, you wash yourself, you wash your hair, brush your teeth, etc. only to find that several hours later you have to do it all over again.

Or you wake a child up and go through the whole day only to find that you have to put them to bed and wake them up again.

You go around the argument cycle with a teenager. You think you resolve something, but then you end right back where you started, and you feel like no progress has been made.

you clean things so they become messy, you fill up the gas tank so it can get empty again, you eat so you can be hungry once more.

you get paperwork done so more can appear, you pay bills so more can arrive and on and on and on

and sometimes

it

is

boring.
