The reply went something like this, "Oh, it was okay... pretty boring. Just another day, you know."
And it struck me in that moment how absolutely tragic this is... Not just her, but for the thousands of students in this city that go home everyday and say something similar.
Another day lost into the canyon of boringness and nothing and apathy.
Friends, we only have a limited amount of these days, we can't keep pushing them off the edge like this!
And I decided in that moment that I would never lose another day into that terrible place again... That every day I would search for variety and something new to do. That I would push for interesting conversation and plan for the unexpected to happen. That every day I would venture outside those ten foot thick walls of my comfort zone.
We've sat too long in the lazy boy of our comfort zone that we didn't realize it had turned to boring and expecting nothing zone and now we're trapped in it!It's time to get off the armchair people!
We have a certain amount of 24 hour lots. Lets' stop throwing them away.
