Is boredom a sin?  NO!  Is it a disease?  YES!  And there are cures

       When was the last time you did something you used to enjoy but hadn’t done for weeks or months or years?

       It isn’t just that as we grow older, we grow lazier.  It is just that, if we are not careful, we allow ourselves to grow lazier until finally getting up out of a chair can become the most exciting part of the day.  Not to go somewhere.  Not to do something new or resurrect something wonderful from the past.  Just getting up.

       In short, if are you are not willing to settle for a boring life, then don’t be content with mediocrity. 

In fact, if somewhere along the line you gave up on some physical, or mental or spiritual exercising effort, you unfortunately took the first step on the slippery road to a boring existence.

You think I’m being facetious?  That I don’t seriously mean what I’m saying?  Well consider the following:

At work do you find yourself killing time… doing as little as you can get by with? 

At home do you expend as little effort as possible being a better parent or mate? 

Do you have no dreams for tomorrow, no deeds in the recent past of which

you can be proud? 

And when you retire, is it your plan to do as little as you have to? Dedicating yourself to idleness, to nothingness?

Sure, resting is wonderful…but it is a thousand times more wonderful if you are resting from having done something worthwhile that enlivens your mind, body and soul.
