Don't Tell Me You're Bored


Don’t tell me you’re bored.
Seek amusement as a toddler seeks his sand castle:
Use time to invest in someone’s life.
Maybe even give instead of take.
Make your professor’s day.
Study philosophy on your own.
Exercise. Pray. Write.
Don’t be superficial. Talk to someone.
Challenge yourself.
Do something you have never done before.
Tell your comfort zone to buzz off.
Start a new relationship, or rekindle an old one.
Plan for your future or revisit your past,
but don’t dwell in it.
Study. Analyze. Live.
Seek entertainment.
Draw a picture. Then throw it away.
Draw the leaves once green,
now yellow, orange, and red.
Watch people, and learn something.
Tell someone you love them.
Stare at a desk. And write about it.
Build something. Find something.
Write a song. Try to sing it.
Make something of your boredom.
