THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT SHY PEOPLE



There is something about shy people that sets them apart from the crowd. There is something unbelievably attractive in them that draw me towards them. This is despite the fact that there are thousands of extroverts who manage to attract people more and at a greater speed. But a shy person manages to catch my attention while sitting quietly in a corner.
One of the reasons behind this is that fact that I am shy. They say a person understands another who is of the same kind. But if I put that thing aside there are lots of reasons that attracts me towards them. They are very sober and most of the times intelligent people. They live in their own world and are happy with that. And on a lighter note, if a shy person can attract millions by almost doing no or less efforts then why put in more efforts and waste your energy. They have such serenity and beauty in them that makes people wonder and hence make them curious to know more about them. They are mysterious and really hold a great power in them. They have in them to make it big, though the world does not believe so. They are very private people who think that their privacy should not be hindered. One must expect a volcanic eruption if someone tries to invade their privacy and they think it is justified completely to take such a step.
Being a shy person I have experienced many a times situations, wherein people are not bothered about my opinion. Also, just because I do not discuss private things like what kind of a partner do you like, what kind of a life you like to live and such stuff with each and every one, does not mean that I have no such things in my mind. In fact I have much stronger feelings than the extrovert ones. And I am sure all you shy people out there must have experienced such a thing at some point in your life.
I guess to prove efficiency of the person who is shy only one thing comes to my mind: action speaks louder than words. Our work and actions and results would definitely not be worth shying for but worth shouting for and letting the whole world know “we can make it”.

P.S. : Tpost has nothing against the extroverts. Take it as a post which is straight from the heart, that’s it !!

Nitin said...

great post..MIW.... but there are very few ppl who go and talk to quietly sitting person ..
And as far as 'Action speaks Louder than Word' is considered my personal experience says its gud to hear and say but in practicality ,its words which matters.. action takes too long to get recognition or even left unnoticed..

my inner world said...

well yes action takes time be noticed but then all the good things in life make us wait , isnt it?? :)

It's really nice that you don't overlook those who keep to themselves,just how a teacher should be!Many a time,shyness is mistaken for attitude.
