I once told a friend that I was an introvert who masquerades as an extrovert. He said that wasn't possible, but I beg to differ.
I think I'm like most people. We all want love and acceptance. Most of us are terrified to put our real selves out there, so we put a safe someone out there to hide behind. And slowly, we allow our real self to ease out and tip toe into new relationships relative to how we've been previously judged or hurt by ridicule or rejection. It's all about trust. I am the extrovert who speaks for the introvert whom I protect. I am opinionated, and with the publication of my first book, The Common Ground, I have to say the extrovert has jumped, dragging the introvert, naked off of a cliff. So this is all new and very scary, but if it received positively, I hope it will be an encouragement to others to take bold steps to express who they are. The world deserves you and your talent and you deserve to take that big step to believe in yourself regardless of whether you are loved or rejected. So here goes, and I hope I have friends in the end, old and hopefully, many new ones like you.
