## What Jamie wrote

The headline message from this… 

**Boredom breeds creativity.**

I think about this fairly often. Modern life gives us every out to escape boredom. Heck, not even boredom, but in many ways to escape our own thoughts. You really could fill every moment of the day with something, like those magic foam sprays that get bigger and bigger to fill a hole. No crack remains. No opportunity for boredom. No opportunity to even hear your own thoughts.
