Hello there, friend,
Remember when they changed what it meant to be an introvert? It made so much more sense for me. It's not that I'm antisocial, but when I'm worn out, I need to recharge alone. I am restored through being by myself. The quiet, the contemplation -- it works for me. I know this and, yet, there are times I just can't find it. This weekend was one of those times.
I was supposed to have coffee with some women from church this morning. I waited until ten minutes before I was going to meet them to decide that I was actually going to go. I was afraid I was going to leave drained instead of recharged. I didn't want to give myself to one more thing, and it felt like a coin flip whether it was going to revive me or not.
Thankfully, it did and I returned home feeling better overall, despite still wanting to climb in bed for a nap. Sometimes it works out that way.
xo,
L
