The Necessity of Boredom

The life is full of interesting things, but it is unavoidable for us to have the boring time. However, although we feel bored and listless, we usually get the heartfelt experience from the boring time. For example, on the long way home we are often lost in thought; when we take the airplane, we think of our home suddenly. These long solitude moments usually make our trip more memorable and meaningful.
However, a greater number of modern people like to use portable equipment to pass the time, such as iPod, mobile phone, NDSL.
Have we ever thought that we lost how many beautiful things when we use the computer, iPod or something else in the car? As a matter of fact, our real character is shown in the most boring time. Most animals are busy rushing about survival; therefore, leisure is luxury goods in our life.
Though some people have nothing to do when they are in the boring time, others don’t react to the world, and turn to find out the inner life. We often have a lot of new ideas in this time of self-examination. Maybe we have the new experience of relationship or the scientific truth.
Does the meaningful life depend on achievement? We describe the boredom as the dull glace or void in the usual way. Actually, a lot of people believe that the base of art, literature, philosophy, science and love comes from the feeling of boredom.
