“Calm and quiet? You?” I can almost hear my friends calling my bullshit on that. I have to admit I may get loud and chatty at times. But what they don’t know is that it only happens when I’m in the company of my close friends. Other times? Well I am “Calm and quiet…but NOT DEAD” and I know I am definitely not alone.
We live in a world, seemingly, ruled by extroverts. So if you happen to be an introvert, it’s pretty easy to think
“Is there something wrong with me? Why am I not more outgoing? Am I missing out on life, if so why doesn’t it feel like it? ‘cause everyone else seems to think so”.
My personal take on that is:
There is a difference between choosing to live a quiet life and having a social anxiety that turns one’s life into a prison. At the end of the day, if you’re happy living your life the way you do, who cares what others think you should be doing. Right?
