Which is worse? To lead a life:

a) so boring that you are easily enchanted?
or
b) so full of stimulus that you are easily bored?

A question pondered in one of the many books I'm reading.

ahhh, obviously the worse of the two is the latter. with the former, your everyday is boring so it doesn't bother you. it's the norm!

Hmmm, interesting you say that, in that you live in one of the most stimuli-heavy cities in the country!

Tell me for reals: was that pumpkin bread raw in the middle?

Actually, you're not offering parallel choices because, at one end, one's life would be boring and at the other end, the life is "full of stimulus" and not stimulating, which offers entirely two different moptions. Because one could have a life full of stimulus that is completely boring, because the person is not attracted to any of the options available. But if a person's life is stimulating (or exciting) (which would be opposite of boring) life wouldn't be boring. I think if a person is easily enchanted or bored, then the person probably needs to seek activities that are more stimulating.
