A good kind of thought for the introverts among us

"When I’m on my own, I get all the time and space to flit between hobbies, following the whims of my moods and thoughts. Whether it’s a night after work or an entire Saturday by myself, I’ll read, then journal or work on my writing. I’ll play some Sims, or work on a puzzle, or dive into my spirituality. The opportunities to engage my mind are never-ending. This is how I recharge."

I got this from Introvert Dear, an email-based newsletter I have subscribed to. And they talk at length about the introvert mind, and new ways to think for them different folks. empaths included.

Very good indeed. If you haven't already read it, I also would recommend Quiet by Susan Cain. We need far more introverts to step up these days like in olden days where the strong, silent type were the heroes rather than the gregarious, outspoken, megaphone hoggers we have today.
