Boredom/idleness=Broaden/investment

I am currently watching a film which  i will review later on

which brought me back to this topic 

the sometimes synonymous 

interchangeable 

interloping

interlocking

Boredom and idleness

Views have a perspective and this has a western city perspective 

boredom is a worry and fear of many people

it is moaned it is groaned

and at every turn banished but for some to regularly raise its head again

Some say boredom is eternal foe of humanity 

but is it boredom or idleness

we have all heard of the saying the devil makes work of idle hands 

which the response is to be busy with your hands

but the saying is only half of the equation 

we can think of boredom as a comma and idleness as a full stop the calm before the storm

i myself cannot remark on the last time i was bored 

i personally think within a city it is impossible to bored 

whereas idleness is around every corner the interlude the interval 

between events

which bertrand russell goes into great depths to discuss 

 but it rose to my attention i said before because of this film

the character retorts how humans have been given the 

human anatomy

the understanding of to a degree

they have nature 

they have cosmos 

and i add they have the internet and they are bored

then it got me thinking what people get bored

and what people get idle 

sheep get bored

and wolves or foxes get idle

whereas these coming days of holiday for some they will be 

chasing lights and others in an attempt to not be bored 

this festive period i was given some food for thought 

what do you do with family 

and when i saw these archaic games 

i chuckled to myself of how people 

lost the art of entertaining themselves

one may say that the entertainment has evolved 

but in what sense 

that with the archaic games ones mind as well as eyes had to be engaged in the case of scrabble

monopoly chess and so forth yes you can get them electronically

but how popular is it 

as with films how many blockbuster movies are there devoid of explosions and eye candy

but i digress 

i now refer to a previous post on the film limitless  

how one can be limited within the limitless 

and that the problems are of the mind but are wrongly being attacked through the body

for some one phrase can keep them occupied for hours perhaps days 

i even conversed through a social medium 

with a person who claimed to not have uttered a word for three days

i remarked at how he managed to do so

 more from the point of others boredom attempting to encroach on his idleness 

for with idleness one can find themselves or see things that one through the hustle and bustle would miss

but with boredom the bandwagons are bountiful

for me boredom is blasphemy but shows ones sense of sight 

for within a room in the average household are a million questions 

you never thought to ask

from how do tvs work or radios or mobile phones

how many hairs are on a head 

how long can you not speak for 

could i reverse engineer the products in my house

could i read the dictionary from cover to cover

etc

some may say they dont have time but they make time to battle boredom and also why not change that they time is preoccupied 

i will leave on this 

if boredom leads to following what does idleness lead to

and if this continues

where will society end up 

the people who succumb to boredom a majority on one side 

and idleness on another

individualcopycatism

are you an individual or an individual part on the assembly line
i left my house put on an ensemble
entered the train to sit next to my fashion twin
no i have not stooped into the valleys of vanity
i sat next to a guy wearing the same equivalent jeans the same colour
even the same back pack
it started to make me think
i picked this ensemble to fit in
but how many people do
for clothes provide two functions
warmth and statement
and across from me was a guy who have a jacket which i have at home and could of easily worn that day
which gets me onto how does individuality work within the confounds of a city
with regards to clothing
there are three roles
purchase alter or make your own
if you purchase then its possible others can purchase it and how man have been in the position where
their item of clothing or attempt at individualism has been thwarted by someone asking where did you get it
for they'd like to get it also

this is quite a problem for some people but is it only a problem of the vain but is it only a problem of the vain but if you wanted to make a statement you may get to this crossroad also
which have same people going to charity shops looking for retro outfits or altering them which may to a craze where your niche becomes a noose
and are unwillingly swept with the wheelbarrow
like with the glasses i have people come up to me asking
if their prescription
or otherwise which
can be perceived as a crowd follower

so does individualism always spawn into a group society perhaps that might be its aim for
fads die out
and never really get the said statement
but societies normally stay true
so is individualisms main problem the ferocity of fads and those who favour them
for their vain ends and favour the message none
such as che Guevara merchandisers
an anti capitalist malformed for capital
or for cool and type casting and boxing

so does individualism transform into individual grouping
for do originality and individuality collide
coincide and fraternise
or does individualism
transcend the boxes
used to exploit it
such as fashion
fashion accessories
which means you are failing your objectives
instead of rising to them
for the question beckons
can naked people be individuals
or are they really individuals
for the externals are
but the immaterial the abstract the illustrious

problems of philosophy part 1

philosophy the love of wisdom
has been forgotten is a way of life
one cannot be a philosopher if one is merely text books and jargon
and they are just really fancy footed notion of simplistic ideals

philosophy is life it is ones being one reshapes one is remolded one is like water it can be of many states

philosophy has lost that people regurgitate without ever producing or improving on ideas writing papers of quantity not of quality
 why spend a thousand words mumbling over a subject which may be better said with a few lines

if philosophy is a way of life should it not deal with it not rummaging through ideas of archaic nature

philosophy is estranged from the very people it is here to influence the like minded and the not so

hiding behind doctorates yet professing to be ideally descendants of socrates who is so far away from the grotesque image they are.

the power of ones reasoning and ones argument meant one was qualified not their degrees

But corruption has sunk in selling books holding talks for name and office only

philosophy has fallen so far behind the other sciences it merely gives lips service to it

using science as back up yet it is not the case the other way round

philosophy begs importance begs to be acknowledged for works or yesteryear's

 siring scholars of impotent natures in matters of ideas and innovations

Originality??

originality is such a hard thing to do and the effort one needs to take to ensure it the problem arises of originality 

and publication

one can be original but the absence of publication then makes the originality at threat to thieves and eyes of lesser minds 

and to search if you are original gives opportunity of being found and no longer being original 

i now denounce descry 

 

i am rebel reasoner

this is a digression but this a showcase of my thoughts and interactive soliloquy
