– “Psychology: Why boredom is bad…and good for you”
“Boredom is such a large part of day-to-day existence that it is somewhat surprising the word only entered the language with Charles Dickens’ Bleak House in 1852. Dickens study of Lady Deadlock’s suffering – she is “bored to death” by her marriage – would end up pre-empting many of the latest findings. But perhaps because of its prevalence in our lives, scientists had been slow to explore the sensation. “When you are swimming in something, maybe you don’t think of it as being noteworthy,” says John Eastwood at York University in Canada, who was one of the first scholars to take an interest.
One of the most common misconceptions is that “only boring people get bored”. Yet as Eastwood set about exploring the reasons for boredom, he found that there are two distinct types of personality that tend to suffer from ennui, and neither are particularly dull themselves.
Boredom often goes with a naturally impulsive mindset among people who are constantly looking for new experiences,” quoting David Robson, BBC.

– Ramtha on boredom: a sign you have learned all there is to learn from an experience
“Love yourself, master, and listen to what self says, what it needs to feel, and then pursue it heartily until you are bored with it. Boredom is a sign from your soul that you have learned all there is to learn from an experience and that it is time to go on to another adventure. When you listen only to the feelings within you, then you are free to become in this moment whatever you choose to become. And know that you never have to answer to any law, any teaching, or any entity. Now — and the feelings that you gain from it — is all that will ever be important.
Become lawless, master. That does not equate recklessness. It means that the ropesman will take the rope away from your throat and allow you to breathe. When you remove yourself from laws and dogma and limited beliefs, then you are allowing yourself to be the freedom and unlimitedness that God is. Then you can simply be the power that you are, to create and regenerate yourself and life. Then the reason that you are here is not to make amends to whomever you did whatever to, but rather because you want to live. And that adventure unfolds moment to moment to moment.
Live and be happy. That is the only thing the Father has ever asked you to do.”
