Someone recently called me boring and I just couldn’t…!

Imagine, you’re in the City of Dawn with a couple of strangers, and someone calls you boring. I thought I would be offended or crack up, but nothing of the sort happened. Instead, I calmly accepted the remark and moved on with the next conversation topic. 

Lately, I often describe myself as boring because of my nonchalant life choices. Life took its natural course and I accepted the defeats it gave me. I didn’t find a point in fighting with the things I cannot change, and that’s where I found peace. My sweet spot! You can either find a solution to your problem, or you can accept the existence of the issue. Maybe, in some cases, you can find your way to a middle ground, but you need to be smart enough for that (Also, self-aware). I call it, No Way, Yes Way, or My Way! 

Most people have problems with fighting with their demons and self reflection. The lack of self-love makes you act stupid. And I mean love, the healthy and real form of relationship with yourself where you are aware of your positives and negatives (Don’t misunderstand self-love with self-obsession, narcissism, or delusion.). These people are overly dramatic, and they scare me because I have no clue what stupid thing they will do next! 

So when I meet such people, I naturally become a boring person because I don’t bring stereo typical drama to the table, and it amuses them! (Also, neither I can keep up with the Kardashians nor with the recent social media trends.) My best friend for almost 15 years calls me boring because I no longer serve him spicy and juicy details about my life! It really makes me wonder how badly we normalized unwanted drama! 

And the funny part is, people choosing peace over drama are considered boring by people who lack stability or who are actually boring themselves. That’s why when someone calls me boring, I take it as a compliment because I cannot downgrade my lifestyle for their entertainment. And why would I make myself miserable by explaining them about my life choices, which they clearly wouldn't understand due to sheer disinterest!

So the last time when someone called me boring, I couldn’t care!  

Peace Out
