Intensely Boring
I am wrong π
It should be “most boring” ππππ
But, I liked to stress on my intensity with most boring ‘routine’.
It started like this..,..
A teacher in my 4th ( I must be just 10 yrs or so), at the last session before the year was over said “you all are going to get promoted to your next class, 5th.
there is no promotion for me ( a smile π)”
My ½ mad mind started its second track of inside_audio : “ dat's tru!!!! That poor teacher is”ill-fated” to keep repeating the same stuff to every batch for yearsπ. How boring her routine must be?π€π€”
At that age, mind jumps to ‘next’ thought π
No question of “still water runs deep” wala proverb to display it's functional swaroop/form π
But that thought ( wonder_element in it) stayed and kept visiting me like an annual ghost( my grandfather’s ghost is ‘welcomed’ annually, by my dad, I knew from the shraadha ceremony, a ritual at my home).
At workplace, I decided to try ‘like that teacher's( for fun only)π
Try to be intense in writing passbook for bank's customers. ( I borrowed a thought from my seniors, not waiting to know from my_experience, when they prophesied “passbook writing is a wretched and boring routine, but we are paid to do it ( with that ugly facial expressions π ππ°π₯Άπ₯΅ etc)
With no scope to expect anything out of “paid COPY-PASTE job, ledger–to–passbook”, I kept intensifying CONSCIOUSLY π
( Awesome rewards! But I won't ‘bore you here with those rewards’)
Next level of confronting boring taskπ
At around 40, I volunteered to help freshers with backup support at a yoga centre, with what I learnt in my program earlier.
I bettered my teacher, who repeats only once every year, the text lessons, she might have felt to be a boring_routine for_her!
How to do, pranayams—daily_repeat, for 6+ years. How to do 3 guided meditations, twice a week repetition for same 6+ years π
I was “in” for a pleasant surprise!
These DAMN_boring subtle practices started its job inside me . It became noticeable only after a ‘boring 4 years long time π”
After those 4 years, becoming ‘intense’ got automated. Default software.
That automation infected too badly, any damn thing I think, say or do πππππ
( Didn't I reveal the secret about why “I am the most DETESTED person to my close ones? Physical proximity in ‘close people ‘ not emotionally close onesπ)
Boredom got bored of me ππππππ
Boringly yours,

“Boredom got bored of me “ … best. As soon as we start enjoying everything we do routine or otherwise, it is no longer boring.
