Are You Boring Yourself?

Anybody out there remember Tony Martin, the handsome leading man of a few years back?

Tony was complaining about being bored and fed up with life at one point at the end of his career, and bemoaning the way Hollywood was treating him.

"One day you're making love to Betty Grable," he said, "another day to Lana Turner, the next day to Linda Darnell, and before you know it, you're a has been!"

"Yeah," spoke up a friend, "but look where you has been!"

If you really want to escape from boredom, there are tons of possibilities if you're willing to face life as you find it and take your happiness as it comes to you.

And anyone who has been in a good place has the experience to get there again.

Quit staring at the cliff in front of you, and turn around to admire the canyon you've climbed out of.

Be glad you're a has been.
