What constitutes a boring life...

Well, one of the most misunderstood words in today's lingo is boring. It is extremely subjective yet each one of us thinks that his/her definition of boring is correct! There are some people who find this blog 'boring' while some kind people like it (and even ask for it!!). So lets first have a look at what boring exactly means.
Boring (adj) refers to what is so uninteresting as to cause mental weariness. Boring implies feelings of listlessness and discontent. Now, what interests you should not necessarily interest me and vice versa (Although there are certain kinds of gossip that interest everyone). Then how can somethings be generalized as boring? Another way of looking at it is lack of patience. Due to lack of time at hand or just because of selfish undercurrents or even due to plain lack of etiquette there is this tendancy of being impatient especially when it comes to listening. As someone who had been labelled poor listener umpteen times and someone who is still trying to learn the art of good listening, this author can tell you that being a good listener is absolutely vital in one's life. It takes a lot of patience to listen to things that don't interest you and even more to read such things (for the author reading most of his course books was a real test of patience which he failed quite a few times, just falling asleep with the book below his head) but many a times it is important.
Well the author is not asking his students to be all ears all the time but the point is about patience and acceptance of others' opinions no matter how senseless they (either the opinions or the others or both) may be.
Now lets move on to what constitutes a boring life:
1. Not going to pubs/dance bars/ awesome places where one can afford to go only once a month due to exorbitantly high prices of seemingly normal food stuffs.
2. Not smoking or drinking - in the modern world having no addiction is akin to using language with proper diction. No addiction -> No a(ddi)ction and No Action -> Boring life.
3. Sticking to same brands and choices of places/music/authors - Not exploring exotic things is wasting life - How hollow your life will be if you haven't the lebanese cusine or you haven't been to the new theme restaurent that is exorbitantly priced!!
4. Not watching foreign movies - How can let go of watching foreign films (even if you dont understand the language use sub titles) oh common - you came on this earth to see the best that it has on offer!!
5. Not flaunting - If you dont flaunt your latest purchases/acquisitions/achievements then you surely are leading a boring life - See your life should be like an 'Aaj tak' or 'India TV' report i.e. always replete with Sansanikhej happenings- shorn of such interesting tough your life is boring!
6. Last but not the least your life is not interesting if you enjoy it it is interesting only if others find palpable signs (read high valued purchases, travels to exotic locations, status messages saying 'I am having a ball- life is great', photographic evidence of overtly happy moments, or even a perpetually 'busy' message which implies you have absolutely immersed yourself in some universe changing project) of it being interesting. What you appear is what you are - So if you want to have a rocking life avoid the five habbits mentioned above and achieve the ultimate goal of your life - an intersting life!!!
