If we know to handle our idle and lonely moments, we perhaps are the happiest beings around. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be the case with most of us. In such times if we know the art of diving within or at least know that inside is the unending source of joy and energy, we would not know what is boredom. Boredom is the state in which we are not aware of our own energy. It signifies a state of confusion- and to escape from it we attempt pseudo methods- watching TV or if you can afford go shopping. These two methods are supplemented by chit-chatting, playing games, social visits or programmes. Watching TV is the worst tool to get out of boredom as you are further depleted of your energy but you are not aware. Shopping does offer an opportunity to be impacted by others' energy and thus feel better. Others' energy does the trick.
