Word of the Day: Humdrum
Humdrum means dull or lacking excitement and is usually used to describe someone’s life situation.
Believe it or not, some people feel that life is tedious and slow.
They believe that their life is boring.
Many people also say that they have a tedious job.
Every day, they do the same thing, and their job is never enjoyable, and nothing exciting ever happens.
In my opinion, life is never monotonous.
Life is what YOU make it.
If a person believes that they have a humdrum life, they are responsible for taking the reins and creating the life experiences they want.
You can’t wait for life to happen to you; you have to make it happen.
