Good and bad days
I feel like each day spent in quarantine is entirely different. As in every day life, there are good and bad days. <s>I,</s> In general, I don't really mind staying home for a long period of time. I'm more of a homebody anyway. I've never been one to enjoy going to parties and drawing a lot of attention to myself. But it<s>'s</s> was only <s>been</s> about a year or two ago that I<s>'ve</s> stumbled upon the concept of introverts and extroverts. I think it has been one of the biggest "eye-opening" or enlightening moments of my life, as dramatic as that may sound. The thing is I've spent so much time wondering why I'm so different to everyone around me and pondering <s>about</s> what possible reasons there could be as to why I'm "the odd one out". I've <s>been</s> even gone as far as blaming myself for not being <s>too</s> cool enough, funny or outgoing enough to mingle with other people my age, drinking, smoking or whatever the heck it is that you do in your teenage years. But as I slowly discovered the difference between introversion and extroversion and various personality types, I started to realize that this isn't as much about me, as it might be about them. Yes, I'm an introvert, although that doesn't mean I'm shy, boring or quiet all the time. It means I love and need time to myself, in order to hear my own voice and thoughts more clearly <s>er</s> than those of the rest of the world. I thoroughly enjoy being alone, yet it doesn't make me lonely. I focus and admire the little things in life to which <s>that</s> others don't seem to see or <s>put </s>place any meaning<s> to</s>.
Where I actually wanted to go with my initial thought was <s>is</s>, that I do think some people might find it harder to be in quarantine than others. In my opinion, it definitely has something to do with the person's personality type, their traits and whether they can be on their own and enjoy their own company or not.
I never intended to write about this and I apologize if it seems jumbled and out of order. Although it also it feels kind of personal putting this rant out there, I'll take a leap, hoping someone can relate to this. :)
