Dear Extrovert,
Many things come to mind when I think of you. There are so many sentiments that I would like to express as it relates to your many attributes and traits. Though each one be specific and unique in his own right, still I have come across a very common thread when it comes to the extroverted part of you. Firstly, I would like to highlight the bold and courageous energy that you bring to a room. You light up the room and I am most captivated by the courageous act of just boldly expressing oneself in a much verbal way. It is something that I look up to, yet never would I see myself in this light. For you know how to fill in the blanks in those desperate moments of awkward silence. You help to bring a sense of comfort and community to the ones around. You generally love to be in the company of so many. Your personality clearly shows, living unapologetically the life you know it best to be. You also do a great job of bringing calm and relax to a very much stressful situation. You have the ability to mollify any tensed situation, with the soothing of your words. I can sometimes sense the great intensity, that much you carry inside of you, that just burst through, feeling it much like the IMAX experience. You are the leader, captivating any crowd, with the energy that you carry. You also bring to the air a great sense of humour, one that spills out ever so flawlessly when having the most casual of conversations. Not only does your mouth speak, but so do your eyes and hands, making all sorts of animating gestures as you make your point heard. I will not lie, sometimes, your raised tone, makes me think that you are upset about something, as I reflexively grow further into my shell. It takes me a while to realize that all it is, is just a caricaturized expression of your internal thoughts. It takes me a while to readjust to your extraversion. This is very much the complicated side of you, that still I process to this day. Nonetheless, you will always be for me that role model, as you hold with you the one thing that I struggle greatly with; the ability to just outwardly express all that I inwardly think, feel and experience. You have helped shape my view of the world, teaching me that it is, indeed, quite important to have and to own a voice in this world.
This is my message from me to you.
With love,
M.
