Tomorrow on the radio: the spiritual possibilities within boredom
Laura DeMaria
I once again am on Morning Air tomorrow at 8:20 am eastern, this time to discuss just what to do about boredom. Spoiler alert: I want to talk about how boredom is not something to be feared or avoided, but used to help oneself (or, say, one’s child) to embrace silence and one’s own creativity and imagination.
What made me think of this topic is the somewhat depressing thought that summer is, I guess, halfway over. Why count, right? But anyway, with much of the height of summer passed - or we’re just about right in it, now - boredom could be on the horizon. All the vacations are done, the bathing suits are uncomfortable, the snacks are no longer interesting, camp finished weeks ago - and so on. The opportunity for boredom to creep in could be upon us.
But again, don’t worry about it or avoid it. Look at it as an opportunity for spiritual growth. That’s pretty much the theme in everything I write.
