How Can You Be Bored?
stocksnap.io

Okay. So I have to vent for a moment.

Have you ever heard anyone say that they are bored?

No, I am not talking about kids. It is expected from children. But I am talking about adults. Yes, grown up people with full time jobs.

I cant help but to say it annoys me so much when someone tells me that they are bored. And here is why:

Seriously? Have you looked around? We live in this huge world. There is so much to do. There is so much to see. How on earth could anyone possibly be bored?

You can travel. You can go hiking. You can go swimming, skiing, fishing.

You can hang out with your friends. Go to dinner. See a movie. Have a dinner party.

Clean your house.

I mean come on, people. Don’t you have hobbies?

I could never get bored. I like to do way too many things. If anything, I don’t have enough time in a single day to get all the things done that I want to do.

I love to exercise or play with my dog. I have tons of hobbies like cooking, decorating and I do all kinds of Pinterest projects. I love anything related to arts and crafts.

I could go see my family.

Honestly, the list could go on forever. These are just things that I enjoy. That doesn’t include the things that have to be done on a regular basis like clean the house, do laundry, cook and clean.

So, I just don’t understand how anyone could ever say that they are bored. There is so much to do and so much to see.

So, next time that you are bored. Think twice before you say it.

Go outside. Look around. We live in a very beautiful world that truly has so much to offer.

Instead of saying that you are bored, what can you do that will strike you interest?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
