Phenomenally Bored Pleiades Rising

Looking back on the ground covered, we sketched a general nature of boredom. We saw what was involved in being in specific moods: good and bad moods present us with an altered world where things can be experienced in contrasting ways. While we are in a good mood, this bread may be tasty. When we are in a bad mood, it seems to be tainted with something ineffable. Conversations may appear vapid or spirited, depending on the mood in which one finds oneself. The weather itself may seem invigorating to one and spiteful to another, even if they are walking together in the very same weather. Undoubtedly we are affected in some ways by how things seem to us. Thus, we were more concerned with the subjective observer-dependent features, rather than the objective observer-independent features of the world (Boredom, while a "real" thing, does not exist in the same sense of the word as a cloud does). Of course, we are not denying that the latter were somehow fundamentally unimportant to us--far from it, since we appealed to this world time and again--but for our purposes we were more interested in those former things as they inevitably fall under a highly subjective perspective as experienced by a subject. We wanted the "feel of things." And more importantly for this essay, as the elements and events fall under our subjective experiences, we may feel compelled at times to focus on whatever it is we are currently experiencing. Perhaps, by focusing on both the qualities of an experience and the total experience itself--i.e. the parts and the whole--we may discern something within our lives that we had never noticed before. By seeing the part as it appears under this aspect, we may possibly see the whole as something else. We see the novelty. The moods, whether they are good, bad, or nameless, have as their nature to disguise, exaggerate, falsify, distort, divulge, slant, strain, tint, bare, betray, communicate, disclose, enhance, and reveal many things to whomever find herself minding them.
