There are many times in our life where we become extremely bored. Either there's nothing to do or we just are suddenly tired with the current task at hand. While some may see it as a way of relaxing, I think that it's annoying to become bored because then I feel so unproductive. Time seems to be spent much more effectively when you're doing something. While it tends to seemingly "fly by" when you're having fun or doing something that is in fact time consuming, when you're doing nothing, time can drag on forever and it will seem like an eternity before 5 minutes has passed. I just can't stand to live my life sitting around waiting for something to happen. I have to go out there and make something happen on my own, otherwise how am I supposed to know if anything will in fact come about or not?

Some people are scared of things in the world and they will spend a majority of their life hiding...just waiting for someone to pull them out and tell them that it's okay, to show them all the wonderful things that are up for the taking in the world. It's hard to reach for something and wish for things when you have no idea that they exist. That's half the fun in working towards something probably. Knowing that it's a difficult task, but being able to set your mind to it and accomplish it is one of the best feelings in the world.

We don't often see the things that are right in front of us. We're always striving ahead to something bigger and better. Looking for the greener grass on the other side of the fence. If we just take a second to pause and realize that we have everything that we need, that there's a lot that we should be doing to help us get to where we really want to be, I think we might be a little more at ease. More people would end up in places that they love doing something that they love with the people that they love. Just the way that life should be.
