I'M INTROVERTED, SO SUE ME!

Yep, I decided that I would no longer apologize for being introverted.  Extroverts don't apologize for saying out loud every single thoughts that pop in their minds - even the most insignificant ones - so why should we for being more reflective?  I am drawing the line today.  I no longer want to feel ashamed because I want to be alone, lost in my thoughts. I no longer want to feel ashamed because I need a lot of downtime to recharge my batteries. I no longer want to feel ashamed for refusing an invitation to go out because I want to stay in, reading a book.  I no longer want to work against my nature but instead find tips to make my life easier.

Even if I feel more at peace with myself now than I did a few years ago, I am still struggling with the challenge of being introverted.  I hope that by sharing my experiences, I will help others and will understand better who I am.  I want this blog to be a diary about my life as an introverted girl.
