I’ve learned a lot about myself these past several years. A big part of it is simply that I have learned to recognize my patterns of behavior. Which was the case with this post from November 2012.
As as introvert, learning to honor my need for quiet and solitude has been a big part of my own personal journey. I used to believe that there was something wrong with me…that needing time alone was somehow selfish or dysfunctional, but now I know that this is the way God made me. And that is worth celebrating.

Me, too! I’m okay, you’re okay.
You’ll get a big kick out of this. Just finished a little text chat with my sister and sis-in-law in which my sister accused me of being an overthinker. Can you imagine??? 🙂
ha! just one of the many reasons we are friends! 🙂
