YES I AM

It took me a while to write this; I still don’t think I have written what I really wanted to say. I guess I will never have the right words to explain and understand introverts.

Who is an introvert? An introvert is not a shy person like most people think though some are shy.Basically,an introvert is a person who is energized by being alone and whose energy is drained by being around other people. An introvert is more concerned with the inner world of mind; enjoy thinking, exploring their thoughts and feelings.

I know this is most people's definition of a boring person; but YES I'M A INTROVERT, welcome to my world. I will always be at a corner away from people, I don’t like loud places and will always substitute a night out with my cosy,warm bed reading a book.

My greatest companions are my books. I love to curl up and read, read and read in the solitude of my room. I will occasionally pull out a book to read I n  public.Yeah I know what  you are thinking; this is the international code of "please do not disturb me" but I just can't help it. My headphones are my best friend for two reasons;

 I love music, I can't do without it……by the way:"Dear music, I will never be able to thank you enough for always being there for me."Second reason for my headphones ,so that people will "hopefully" not talk to me; but don’t get me wrong I'm a great listener and give thoughtful feedback. I  know some are reading this and nodding passionately saying: yeah you do that a lot;"the headphones". More often I love to be alone with my thoughts I believe SILENCE IS MAGIC.

I realized since I don’t talk much  people assume I'm a snob, my friend and I like to define snob as being unique; I'm just unique ,I guess that’s a good thing. I may give so many reasons for introverts but one thing is for sure:

"There is no such thing as pure introvert/extrovert.

With such a man would be in the lunatic asylum."
