To The Silent Human

Understanding the strength and peace of introversion

By Rohitha LankaPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

To the silent human

The one who is called an introvert

She is not a talkative person.

She does not like to be the center of attention

When there are many people around her, she may choose to be the one listening.

Not because she has nothing to say, but because she knows that

"There is no need to say everything".

She likes silence.

She likes her own space.

She likes the time to sit and think deeply.

She likes to listen to feelings.

She likes to spend time reading something.

Or sometimes... just sitting quietly is good enough.

Other people may think that she is hard to approach.

Some people may misunderstand that she is arrogant.

Or does not want to socialize.

But in fact, she just chooses to be with

What makes her comfortable? She does not hate people.

She just does not want to be loud all the time.

She does not hate talking.

She just needs the right amount of energy.

It can be said that... an extrovert who recharges from society.

Introverts need to use "silence"... to...

Be a place to recharge their batteries.

And sometimes... she may not need a lot of friends.

She does not need a large social circle.

She just needs "someone who understands".

Someone who does not force her to talk, more than she wants to talk.

Someone who can sit next to you without filling the silence.

Someone who doesn't ask "Why are you so quiet?"

But understands that "You are like this and it's fine."

Introverts don't mean weak.

But they have their own world.

And don't want anyone to understand.

They may not talk much, but when they do... Every word has meaning.

They may not be good at socializing, but when they choose someone to come into their life,

They give more value and sincerity than anyone would expect.

She is who she is.

And it's the best version of her.

    I really love this, I am an introvert, and I do get misunderstood. Are you an introvert, you really understand the inner voices of one.
