Well, here's what I've been thinking about and teaching lately. Boredom. Is there anything more glorious than boredom? If you are bored then you are not fearing for your life in a war-torn country, dealing with the grief of losing a loved-one, or desperately trying to find a way to survive without money or food. Boredom. It's a good thing.
So, in the spirit of Thanksgiving I proudly proclaim how THANKFUL I am to be a wee bit bored these days. Life is GOOD!
What are you thankful for today?
Love and hugs,
Jan

I am thankful for my job and for my husband's job! Oh, and a vacation this week from that job.
Well I read that "May you live in interesting times" is a Confucian curse, so on that basis being a little bored can't be a bad thing.
I am very thankful for good health, not being in a part of the UK that's flooded out, not having any friend or member of the family in Afghanistan, and my wonderful husband and children. Oh and loads more .... but I might save those for a future post .......
A Very Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

As I've got older I've started thinkign that boring ain't so bad :)
i'm very thankful for such a blessed life. -x-
Boredom can be a good thing. Read a good book. Watch a sappy movie. Take a long walk. Clean house.. oh wait, that's my problem, not yours.
Hope you are doing good. Busy here! I'd like just a wee bit of boredome.
I like. I'm going to try to be thankful for my current finals-related non-boredom, since it's evidence of the blessing of attending a university. And by the end of the month I will be grateful for the boredom from winter vacation! :)
