Do you think people fear being bored? January 23, 2013 9:02 am Jody

I have always maintained that fear is what motivates humanity, on every level. However we are not even aware that we do that…my thought is are we so afraid of the everyday…of what we perceive as *just existing*, boredom, that the only driving force is *more*..of something…anything?
