But,
have you ever wondered why sometimes you are more creative when bored? Some
people come up with random ideas during the boredom sensation. It is best
proven by the selfies Facebook people upload captioned “When boredom strikes”.
Why did I say creative? It’s because why would someone upload a picture of
himself or herself if he/she thinks he/she is not attractive in those shots?
After all, beauty is relative.
Artists
all over the world and all throughout history and even up to today search for
motivation for their work. Some are fueled by strong feelings and emotions that
they can’t communicate straightly best put it in their painting or song. Some
are fueled by selfish desires for money and/or popularity. Still some are
backed up by their dream of being top of the class (now I’m talking about class
projects here). Some do art because they want to advocate or to propose an idea
to the rest of the world. But today things are a little bit different.
Gone
are those days that require such fuels (as enumerated above) to make an art.
Today, we can do art because we are not doing anything. We can make art without
being angry or being heartbroken. We can make art not because we are not told
to do so. We are doing art because we have nothing to do. And to save us from
the weariness of boredom, random thoughts come to our mind and we can come up
of almost anything (not suicide please). Not just anything, something creative
such as the picture above (pats on himself). So go on, there’s nothing wrong
with getting bored. Be bored and be randomly creative.
