With a brain, it is very hard to be bored for long! The human mind is the best amusement where nothing else is available. Trapped waiting for an appointment or on a long trip, there’s no limit to the things you can think about, memories you can call up or stories you can tell yourself. Whether you pleasure is philosophy or fantasy, your capacity to create within the boundaries of your ears allow you to turn dull brick into a beach view and florescent lights into starlight from a thousand light years away. And if your own creations bore you, your favourites from other people remain imprinted, so you can call up favourite songs, favourite texts or simply the best days you’ve had with the people you love.
