I need it.
The silence of the night.
To find again that presence of myself lost in the rush of noises of each day.
Let me embrace you, until my arms hurt, let me kiss you, until my lips are no longer mine.
Let me be by your side until you are everything within and outside of me…

Why? Why all this hatred consuming all of myself? And why today?

We often forget that we are nature. Nature is not something separate from us. So when we say that we have lost our connection to nature, we’ve lost our connection to ourselves.

It is in the infinite ocean of myself that the mind-creation called the world takes place. I am supremely peaceful and formless, and I remain as such.

Sometimes I wonder what life would be like if I had never stepped outside of myself long enough to reflect on whether or not I was being true to my nature.

Alone

I’m not happy for being alone, I’m happy for having time to explore myself in any way possible. Something that I’m not able to do when I’m surrounded by noisy people pushing my attention to their own existence. Because most of the people are afraid of feel alone so they give up on themselves and join the first thing they find to run away from loneliness, things like shopping, painful relationships, fights for power, and so on. So I’m here, I can actually perceive my own existence, I can hear my own voice away from the crowds and I’m happy to that. :)

Definition: Contrary to what most people think, an introvert is  not simply a person who is shy. In fact, being shy has little to do with  being an introvert! Shyness has an element of apprehension, nervousness  and anxiety, and while an introvert may also be shy, introversion  itself is not shyness. Basically, an introvert is a person who is  energized by being alone and whose energy is drained by being around  other people. Introverts are more concerned with the inner world of the mind. They  enjoy thinking, exploring their thoughts and feelings. They often avoid  social situations because being around people drains their energy. This  is true even if they have good social skills. After being with people  for any length of time, such as at a party, they need time alone to  “recharge.” When introverts want to be alone, it is not, by itself, a sign of  depression. It means that they either need to regain their energy from  being around people or that they simply want the time to be with their  own thoughts. Being with people, even people they like and are  comfortable with, can prevent them from their desire to be quietly  introspective. Being introspective, though, does not mean that an introvert never has  conversations. However, those conversations are generally about ideas  and concepts, not about what they consider the trivial matters of social  small talk. Introverts make up about 60% of the gifted population but only about 25-40% of the general population.

Being an introvert myself, I can easily agree with all that is said here. And I am somehow proud of myself for being like that and for not denying my true self.
