Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, people feel bored because they want to feel excited or interested in something, but they don't know what that "something" is. It's like when a person opens the fridge repeatedly, even when they aren't hungry, just hoping they'll suddenly find the perfect snack that makes them happy. This feeling of boredom isn't about having nothing to do; it's more about longing for a purpose or passion that grabs your attention. For example, during the holidays, someone might have plenty of free time but still feel restless because they're searching for an activity that really excites them, like a new hobby or project. To overcome this boredom, one can try exploring new interests, learning something new, or setting small goals. This way, you create the excitement and purpose you are missing, which makes life feel more engaging and enjoyable.
