Maybe even teacher-talk can increase our appreciation of the creative possibilities of our common languages. Still, just as we can't give up trying to save the earth, we can't give up trying to inject some real excitement into these mental wastelands. See boredom as the chemical polluter it is. It clogs up the interconnective passages of the brain and makes it harder to learn. Even boredom can be an inspired state if it leads us to do something about it.
Inspiration means taking a deep breath and starting all over again.
This is a fact of life. Even aging brains can accelerate if we give them some new energy to inspire them. Pursue your deepest interests for a change and just see what happens. Experiment with different ways of answering this motivational call. You'll probably be surprised at the results.
