Boredom

Blog 10.2.2011 - Boredom

Sometimes when we feel that things aren’t moving along quickly enough or when we feel ‘stuck’ we are actually just plain bored. Our ‘story’ becomes boring even to ourselves.
Life can sometimes seem almost unbearable and the pressures and difficulties surrounding us just won’t go. Sometimes we hang on to difficult situations just because if that (the situation) goes, our life might become boring again and we would have nothing to complain about. (I don’t pull any punches as you can no doubt tell!). So stop, relax and breathe and stare and be.
Life is mysterious and wonderful and something can happen (and usually does) out of the blue, something that acts as a catalyst for change. We just need to notice it.
We are all used to the high drama played out on TV and movies that we somehow expect every day to be dramatic and over the top. We think our life is stuck if something major isn’t happening in it right now. There is immense power in the smallest of things, a gesture here, a hug there, the perfect book at the perfect time, one of those ah ha moments.
All of these small but significant events can trigger a new direction or turning point in our lives. These small gifts from our guides and the universe may come from a completely unexpected source and bring relief to the situation. Trust that the universe will provide us with what we really need when we need it, and it may just be a smile from a stranger. Don’t get hooked on the biggest, look for the quality in life.

If you don't like your life right now, then change it, one small do-able step at a time. Don't look to others, do it yourself. Maybe you just haven't noticed the small things that are happening around you that would help.
