The word bored is defined as, feeling weary because one is unoccupied or lacks interest in one's current activity.Borden is part of the human experience and speaks of a vacuum embedded in the human flesh.
Times of Borden creeps in, in most cases when we are alone, or during those times of silence. Because of the darkness within us, we don't like facing ourselves, because when we do, we discover that we have no self-satisfaction. So we are always looking for things on the outside of us to satisfy. When the momentary satisfaction that comes from stuff without wares off we are bored, and we lose interest.
It doesn't matter how much outside activity we surround ourselves with soon or later we find ourselves back to zero. But when will we learn that zero is not such a wrong number. We have taught ourselves that zero is a number that represents none existent, and not understood that the zero is the most significant number of all. Why is this? It is this way because the number zero is without limitation; it's the only number that's entirely within its self and has no need for any other numbers.
Every number but the number zero represent things in our external world, and all things have a beginning and an end, and that includes men because people have a start. But it's not that way with the zero, and why? It's in this manner because the zero has neither beginning nor end. Furthermore, everything starts and ends with zero.
From the beginning of organizing civilization, there has been what we call census. The census is the numbering of the people. Furthermore, everything that has a start is counted with its kind or category. But without the zero numbers are finite and comes to an end, and this is the reason why the zero is always included in the count because without the zero there would be no ten, nor twenty, thirty, forty and so on.
The long short, the zero stands alone. The zero is the first and the last, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. The zero is the number that represents the eternal God and creator of all things.
Now, what does this have to do with human Borden? Everything. You see, it's when our flesh loses interest in things and their activity it finds itself looking in the face of the zero or God. Whenever we come to zero, we face the God who is the first and the last. And the flesh of humans is hostile and set against God, and we lose all interest.
Borden is always with us according to the flesh. It is the temporal things that block us from the view of our cold existence without our Creator.
Hence the Borden or lack of interest is not because of our temporary fix, but it's because we are lost without the zero or the God that created us. Our creator is light and the man is darkness, the darkness has no interest in the light.
The next time you are bored, say hello to God, for it is at this time that you are back to the zero, and remember, without the Zero the ten will never fufill its destiny and neither will you.
