When a friend declared on
social media that she was bored, the usual humdrum ideas flowed from others:
Watch a movie, exercise, sleep, listen to music, colour your nails, count
money, dance…
The ideas added to her
boredom.
She put on her sports shoes,
went for a walk, accidentally met her old friends and had a gala time visiting
a coffee shop with them.
Beating boredom means
different things to different people.
When a retired Indian
politician was asked how he passed time, he shot back: “Why should I pass time?
It will pass by itself.”
Teachers of a Dubai school complained that they were bored of routine and
were taken on a fun trip to the desert by the management.
For a change, the teachers
turned children and had fun.
The organisers lined up
prizes.
“Anyone on high heels can
collect a prize.”
No one expected anyone to visit a desert picnic on high heels. Surprisingly, an elderly teacher grabbed the prize.

The organisers posed another tough
challenge.
“Anyone who has the
photograph of her mother-in-law in her wallet can pick up a prize.”
There was pin-drop silence.
Lo and behold. A teacher stepped
forward, presented her MIL’s photo and grabbed the prize.
Visibly, there were many
envious faces around.
Well, it takes all kinds to make this world what it is....
ReplyDeleteYou are leaving me no choice but to ask my MIL for her photo
