introverts love applause…
no wait, maybe they don’t…
but we love them! so we do it
anyway cause that’s how we
celebrate! and show our love!
thank you, but no.
Ren Faire
today we visit the faire.
the bards will sing,
the royals cavort,
the knights joust,
the wenches…wench.
we will laugh, and
talk, and smile, and
share till we are depleted,
returning home with memories.
need
we love to be accepted…
validated…
acknowledged…
we know they are passing
feelings, and yet we float
on them…even those of us
who live on the fringes
of this social society.
even those of us for whom
these things are rare
and seldom sought.
do your part.
accept.
validate.
acknowledge.
Observation
I work in a large, corporate marketing department. I have observed, over the last few years, that there is tremendous pressure to remain upbeat and positive at all times. It is also a seeming requirement to be hyper-competitive and overbearing. I find this environment almost unbearably grating. I wonder how many others here feel that way.
