<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;">Are you lonely and getting bored? How can you manage or totally eliminate boredom in your life especially during this trying periods in the World history?</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;">As a result of the Coronavirus pandemic that had laid a siege on the entire World, I had been locked down at my home. In the first few weeks, my life literally degenerated to mere sleeping, eating and watching the television. I started getting bored in-spite of the fact that I am even quarantined with my entire family. In any case, my partner has been wonderful supporting in the cooking and homemaking while the kids do the dishes and other minor home chores.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;">I now begin to put myself in the shoes of my friends and colleagues around the World who are single and lonely even in this circumstance. I know because I was once single, lonely and felt bored.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;">Boredom brings about tiredness and loss of vision. When you are bored, you feel like someone thrown into the desert with no sense of direction. You feel like you are lost. You become clueless on what next to do with your life. Happiness and joy begin to elude you. You begin to lose interest in yourself and all that concerns you. You start to withdraw from friends and well-wishers. It could be a period you could fall into depression and begin to nurse suicidal thoughts.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;">Being single and lonely are no problems on their own, it is what you make out of the situation. It is always hilarious when the burden of boredom is lifted off your shoulders. You will have energy, poise and the motivation needed to take action to move your life forward in the right direction. You will be much clearer on your life's mission and vision.</p>

<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;">&bull; Read Another Book: Reading another book in your area of interest is another way of waving boredom goodbye.
