Revisiting Introversion

Photo by the Author of this blog
A few months ago, I posted about introverts and extroverts, primarily busting myths about introverts being antisocial, people-haters (yes, I've been accused of that by the ignorant because I'm not a party animal). In case you missed that post, you can read it at:

God Made Me An Introvert

In one of the responses I left to a comment that post received, I noted that people can be introvert, extrovert, or anywhere in between the two extremes. I just read a fabulous blog post that talks about "ambiverts" - those who are actually a true blend of introvert and extrovert.  I just have to share it because the author, Kristen Lamb, did such a wonderful job of explaining about these "blended" folks as well as further illustrating the vast differences between true introverts and true extroverts and why the world needs both and everything in between.

And if you have time, read through all the vast comments she received in response to her post.  People all along the spectrum responded, and the comments are great!
