If you are bored because of the atmosphere in one place, it must be easy to go out and find a new atmosphere. Boredom will come quickly, especially at an older age, when the activity is the same. Some experts suggest that we should not do the same activity every day. Do something new. Walking around the house, looking at flowers and the green grass, or saying hello to people you pass on the street can eliminate boredom.

What if the person making you feel bored is someone close to you, like a family member or a friend? It can be challenging to deal with that, right? For instance, a senior family member or a close friend who constantly talks about the same topic. They frequently complain or tend to brag about their achievements. It can be tedious.

On my list, the activity that makes me the most bored and trapped is engaging in conversations like this. I have to restrain myself from ending the conversation due to ethical considerations to protect the feelings of my older family member.

Yet, I must be prepared. I am getting older, and I may tend to change. I won’t let myself be boring, and my grandson says, “Grandma, why are you so talkative?”

Hahaha.
