Now almost everyone have a smartphone. When we're bored we will take out our phones and checking Facebook, Instagram all those fun stuff with social media. And we done it without any hesitation, didn't waste any time and take our phones out. It's like we are afraid of boredom. Like it's a bad thing to be bored. But is boredom a bad thing? I, personally like to think boredom is a time to think about myself, my problems...etc.
Like what Charles Simic said in his article "Even so, looking back now, I realize how much I owe to my boredom. Droning in it, I came face to face with myself as if in a mirror. I became a spectator of my own existence, which by turns struck me as being either too real or totally unreal." Boredom is a time that I can truly face myself, think about some questions that I tried to avoid, a time to dissect my thoughts and a lot more.
