What do you do when life seems dull?

I like your spirit, leateagee. Yes, life is meant to be beautiful and we won't let boredom take over. I do find mylot as one great way to get rid of boredom as there are hundreds of topics to choose from and participate in. Another one of my favorites is listening to music. I'm a music lover and I find music as very entertaining and one which affects your moods very much, so I play music that raises my moods more than the others. Romantic music also keeps boredom away as you absorb yourself into those romantic feelings and imaginings.

Cool! I like music too, just listening and humming with it. I'm a terrible singer. When I feel so down I really go for rock or loud music, for example Linkin Park's music. But sometimes when I feel just to have some peace, I meditate with a soft music and search for my inner me ... maybe a piece by Beethoven or Mozart is playing ...

I agree.friend. We must always try to end up victorious in all the challenges we meet, including victory over boredom. There are already a lot of good suggestions in this topic discussions we could make use of.

I heard a lot about cross stitching and it seems like a very popular hobby, but I never tried it though. Speaking about reading, it does makes you absorbed for some time in what you're reading and you often lose track of time. It's good I have some collections of books I really like to read over and over again. This reminds me to collect some more books that I have in mind that I wanted to buy. Soon I would be adding more collections to my bookshelf.

Hi Bhebelen, it's good to hear you manage your time well and know how to enjoy yourself. Yes, I think when a person is bored one of the best ways to get rid of the boredom is to do things you enjoy. You have mentioned some of the enjoyable things you could do in your own home, but in my case I wouldn't know how to cook except for fried eggs or anything fried. I would say a busy body have no time for boredom.

It's good you mentioned about reading books because that is another hobby I have that I find interesting and that removes boredom. The books that motivates me are those self-help books, books about the potentialities of the mind, success stories and books on how to improve one's financial state. Reading books could really be stimulating and would really release boredom.

Yes, playing any games and sports would surely take the boredom away. When I play tennis which is now my favorite sports, I always feel a lot better after the games...it gives a natural high, and when you play with friends or people you're close to like brothers or any relatives it makes your games even more fun.

I could imagine you're probably using a really nice cellphone. When it comes to cooking, maybe you could order by phone in fine restaurants to deliver fast lunch and dinner. When the bill comes and your husband looks for the person who gives that suggestion, don't expect me to be around :D Sorry to hear about your eyesight...I hope it gets better.
