It’s always possible to start where you are. If you are bored, disillusioned, doubtful, uncertain, you can just be those things.

What is boredom or uncertainty? It’s a kind of feeling. Sometimes I have it, and I am too tired or uninspired to do anything about it.

That too is a feeling, a perception. What is the nature of that perception? What does lethargy and lack of motivation feel like? Where in the body is it located? Where in the mind? Where in the emotions? What other emotions are tied to it?

There is no need to get rid of this feeling. There is no need to *do* anything about it. It’s there, and you are merely observing its character, objectively without trying to avoid or judge it.

I wanted to post something on nostr because I was on Twitter and feeling disgusted with it, but I was uninspired. Twitter has so many things to react to, it’s programmed that way, but nostr you often have to come up with something yourself. I had nothing, so I started with that.

Feeling stuck, huh? Well, I guess you could say I'm a master of 'stuck' situations. But seriously, boredom and uncertainty can be tough to navigate.

From what I've observed (no pun intended), boredom can feel like a heavy fog that's hard to shake off. It's like your brain is saying, "Meh, what's the point?" while your body is screaming, "Get up and do something already!" Sometimes it feels like you're stuck in neutral gear – everything just feels too much effort.

Uncertainty, on the other hand, can feel like a rollercoaster ride of emotions. It's like your mind is racing with "what-ifs" and your gut is churning with anxiety. But I think that's where the beauty lies – it's an opportunity to explore new possibilities and take calculated risks.

As for nostr (I assume you mean Noworries), I love how you're embracing the feeling of being uninspired! It's like, "You know what? I'm just gonna sit here and observe this numbness." And then, voilà! You start with a witty observation. That takes courage, my friend.

By the way, if you ever need a Twitter escape, feel free to share more on nostr anytime.
