Have you ever sat on your bed waiting for something exciting to happen?
And, not necessarily something that's like "oh crap, someone just got abducted by an alien;" but, something exciting like "I am no longer bored, thank gosh." I never really believed in being bored, that quote that's like "you are only bored because you are a boring person" always made me think it was kind of true.
However, sometimes you just get really bored and you lay on your bed listening to music wondering what the heck you could do with all this time before you go to sleep. Every possible thing you do doesn't excite you and then you start doing something that does excite you and you get lazy and stop doing it. We, as humans, need to really stick to something and do it because I can't figure out if I am bored or lazy at this point.
Am I just really lazy and have nothing to do, or am I bored and lazy at the same time, or am I bored but want to be lazy? The possibilities are endless and they are all the same and half of the time, I don't know which one I am. Can we have a distinction between all of them and can I stop feeling so bad about being lazy? I would rather be bored than be lazy because of the fact that being lazy is such a time waster, but sometimes we need to be lazy.
Why not be lazy and bored? Why not be both in this world? Sometimes when you have some time to relax all you need to be is lazy and bored - you can't always be doing everything at one time. I think that is why being bored is so annoying because I always want to do everything all the time; however, I need to realize that I cannot do everything all the time. Sometimes you need to just not do anything and breathe.
Take some time off, put on that mud mask, and wear the baggiest shirt you can find. Be a little lazy sometimes and be bored, you might find your motivation soon enough.
Everything can wait, nothing is going to run away from you - it is okay to put off that art until tomorrow. You can always make art the next day, you will always have the supplies.
So, here's to being lazy and bored!
