Some months ago, a highly successful businessman confessed to me, "Jim, I have everything, and I have nothing. I have a wonderful family, an expensive home, three luxury cars, a lake house, a good business, and I'm in good health; and yet, I feel so empty inside. The truth is, I'm bored to tears!" Here in this man's candid confession, we see a graphic picture of the deadly disease of boredom. But boredom is...a symptom of the much deeper problem of...inner emptiness that comes from loving or craving...temporal things that will never satisfy.
