Introvert

So... I left work early to go get my allergy shot in my left arm and a TB test in my right, at two different clinics. The nurse who gave me the TB test gave me instructions that only irritated me, so it helped me to get into this rather grumpy mood that I am in right now. It seems like it doesn't take much to get me here. It won't take much to get me out of this bad mood, but at the same time, I have to avoid people, because being a grouch means that I am even more introverted. I get this way at church, after teaching the 2-year-olds for an hour and then having to face tons of people. Or if I am at a store, surrounded by tons of strangers for a long time, I have to retreat to a place with less people in order to return to a better mood.

I really do need to spend some time in prayer about this difficult aspect of my personality. How do I overcome my bad moods quickly so that I want to spend more time with people? How do I overcome myself willingly so that I am authentic and openly kind to everyone when I get into one of these grouchy moods? How do I move beyond the need for space when this is what I crave so badly?

To look at myself with retrospective eyes and pray to the Lord for help is what I must remember...

The Blog Rebel

So, Mike started a blog. And to rebel, I am starting my own! I have been thinking a lot about who I am and what I believe. I think this would be a great place to get the sorting of my thoughts out.

I have been on a journed to explore who I am, and maybe this blog will help me out...
