On boredom

"That human life must be some kind of mistake is sufficiently proved by the simple observation that man is a compound of needs which are hard to satisfy; that their satisfaction achieves nothing but a painless condition in which he is only given over to boredom; and that boredom is a direct proof that existence is in itself valueless, for boredom is nothing other than the sensation of the emptiness of existence." - Arthur Schopenhauer

How often are we confronted with the 'emptiness of existence'? Throughout the day - in fact, throughout life - we are constantly exposed to the imminent danger(s) of boredom. I presume this is one of the chief reasons why human beings are social in the first place; to accommodate for each other's 'emptiness of existence' by the means of conversations. Even the most shallow conversations constitute eventfulness - yet, we cannot ever escape from our precarious state of affairs. The immediate dangers of boredom will be mitigated, yes, but never be removed altogether. Once your counterpart has left, you recede to your state of emptiness.

Well, all of this only obtains if you prefer human interaction. Some people - yes, they exist - can live in perfect solitude, without any forms of human or non-human interaction whatsoever. I commend them!
