Bored people are good people.

I know people that are bored with life. Because they are blind. Not literally blind. But because they don't see the beauty of life. They are unaware. They don't see the green in grass. Instead, it's drab. When really, there's no green more vivid than grass. Or a green door. Or the green leaves on a tree branch. Or the dark green needles on an evergreen. Another thing. Bored people are out of love. It's virtually impossible to be bored when one is in love. Because love is stimulating. Still another thing. Bored people lack curiosity. They don't ask questions. They don't seek answers. But I don't mind talking to bored people. If for no other reason than to discover why they happen to be bored. In that way, bored people are good people. Because they keep me from being bored. --Jim Broede
