Boredom

Boredom

Boredom is an under appreciated emotion. Do you know that boredom is the second most suppressed emotion after anger? There are also 5 types of boredom. When was the last time you felt the discomfort of being bored and what did you do to combat that feeling? How do you feel when your children say that they are bored?

“I am never bored; to be bored is an insult to one’s self.” 
― Jules Renard

Boredom can also be a force for good, becoming the spark that starts a creative process or leading to greater self-reflection.
