YOU are walking down the street, and suddenly, you see someone familiar. But, oh no, you don't want to meet that person at all. But hey, the normal thing to do would be to greet that fella and see 'how things go'. Hmm, you think. Nah, I better just walk in the other direction.
Unfortunately, you'll always be known as the introvert among extroverts. But, strangely enough, you want to hang out with your pals, but the thing is... sometimes, you'd rather be alone, right? See here, guys. Are we actually what we do? What if I stole something, but I don't like stealing? Does that make me a thief? Or, does that make people think I'm a thief? Why should we all be judged based on what everyone thinks of us? And yes, you and I know we definitely affected by what people say about us, one way or another. One would guess that's how 'the world works', like what old-fashioned fathers/grandpas would tell us.
And yes, fortunately, we can to choose to interpret what is said. No, really, if you say I'm an idiot for writing this, I'm like, "Wow, you actually read my stuff. I'm impressed."
