#42: Being Bored Is Good
I get what this person is saying; with Smartphones and social media, people today have the world at their fingertips, and they don’t need to go outside to be entertained or stimulated. They don’t need to open a book or watch a movie to go on an adventure – they have everything on their phones.
Taking a break from the screen and social media from time to time is essential for me. On the days when I spend hours on social media, I find that I’m rather moody and depressed – much like this Reddit user describes. Taking a break to enjoy the outside world from time to time gives you fresh energy and a fresh perspective on things.
