One of my most prominent traits is that
I am intensely introverted. I tend to find more joy in solitude than I do in
the company of others. I’m not shy, and I’m not lonely. I don’t need anybody’s
empathy. All my life, I, along with all other introverts, have been told that
there is something wrong with me and I needed to change who I was, and that
would make me “better”. But contemplating upon myself, I decided that just
because I’m not “normal”, or in the majority, it doesn’t mean that I am broken.
I just happen to thrive in a different environment than the larger portion of
the population. I would like for extroverts to stop wanting to fix my
introversion. Just because I am alone doesn’t mean I’m sad, and just because I’m
quiet doesn’t mean I’m boring. I believe that letting introverts free to
socialize (or not) as we please will allow us to be more productive and much
happier.
