Bored? Why…How?

I honestly cannot remember the last time I was bored. I’m sure it was over 21 years ago before I had any children. If that truly was the last time I was bored (and I think it was)…I remember why I was bored. I was young and I was not challenging myself sufficiently. I believe that is the crux of boredom. People get bored when they are not challenged enough…when they do not challenge themselves. Challenge doesn’t have to be unpleasant…challenge can even be entertaining! Keep your mind busy and you will never be bored.
