Letters To No One

Boredom

Dear No One

Boredom

Boredom eats people.

It show patience.

Eventually you get so bored that you self combust.

When I get bored I sleep.

Or eat.

Or shout at someone for no apparent reason.

Boredom.

Is what drives people to do stupid things.

Why did you kill him?

'I was bored'

Why did you steal that?

'I was bored'

Why did you drink?

'I was bored'

You could simply answer every question know to man with, 'I was bored'

But should we be bored?

We have laptops.

Phones.

Tablets.

Ipads.

Friends.

Family.

A backyard.

And so much more.

So why are we still bored.

Because we don't slow down.

We rush through life.

We rush everything that needs to be done.

We rush here.

We rush there.

We rush everywhere.

When was the last time you stopped?

Just for one moment.

And though.

'Today I will not rush,

I will stop,

Take a breath,

And look around'

We miss a lot rushing around.

Yesterday I stood still in a crowd of people.

I saw a lady break the heel of her shoe.

I saw a child let go of a balloon.

I saw a women exchange numbers with a man.

I saw a couple kissing.

I saw a pregnant lady and her smiling husband.

See what we miss.

We miss those small things.

They could be funny.

Or sad.

Or too much PDA.

But we still miss it.

Boredom is because we rush.

We rush because that is they way things are.

So next time you are bored,

Stop,

Take a breath,

And look at what you missed.

Love From

Me xx
