In 2010, James Ward, the creator of the blog “I like Boring Things,” launched a conference called the “Boring Conference.” It’s a one-day celebration of the mundane, the ordinary, and the overlooked. In the past, speakers have addressed seemingly meaningless topics like sneezing, sounds that vending machines make, and inkjet printers of 1999. Ward knows the topics may be boring, but the speakers can take a mundane subject and make it interesting, meaningful, and even joyful. Several millennia ago, Solomon, the wisest of kings, launched his own search for joy in the meaningless and mundane. He pursued work, bought flocks, built wealth, acquired singers, and constructed buildings (Ecclesiastes 2:4–9). Some of these pursuits were honorable and some were not. Ultimately, in his pursuit of meaning, the king found nothing but boredom (v. 11). Solomon maintained a worldview that didn’t press beyond the limits of human experience to include God. Ultimately, however, he realized that he would find joy in the mundane, only when he remembered and worshiped God (12:1–7). When we find ourselves in the whirlwind of tedium, let’s launch our own daily, mini-conference, as we “remember [our] Creator” (v. 1)—the God who fills the mundane with meaning. As we remember and worship Him, we’ll find wonder in the ordinary, gratitude in the mundane, and joy in the seemingly meaningless things of life.

Gazs és Kelt egy hetet Londonban töltött, hogy részt vehessenek a London Craft Week és az A Boring Conference eseményein, nomeg hogy kóborolhassanak is a nagy magyar városban. Láttak kézzel kötött sálakat, parfümkészítést élőben, hallottak körforgalmakban vadkempingező pasast és liftekről előadó ötévest, előadást a gonoszság nehézségeiről és a terrorista kvarcóráról. És még múzeumban is voltak. … Continue reading #102. Melyik oldalon hordja a kisurat? adás

This week in Adelaide's Yesterdays it is 'school memories' to honour the conference in Adelaide this week looking at the next wave of challenges facing school design and construction. Chloe from Yelp gives us five great places to go to enjoy Winter better this year - all around Adelaide, the Hills and Fleurieu Peninsula. Dr Dino Hodge returns for part two of the interview about his book, Don Dunstan: Intimacy and Liberty (a political biography). We also cover Adelaide's water (it's better than legend would have you believe), Peter Goers, and Peppa Pig - pick the odd one out! Plus wine from Sir Richard Branson, music about the death of Dr George Duncan, and an Adelaide Visa Council that not only crosses borders, but crosses the floor of parliament. Did someone mention Martin Hamilton Smith? We also stumble across an actual Boring Conference which we'd like to bring Down Under.
