Shyness to me has always represented feeling invisible (because that’s how I feel when I feel shy, which is often if the group is more than a few people). Sometimes I’m so grateful I’m invisible and sometimes it hurts my feelings, especially if I know everyone in the group…been navigating this differently as I age…finding that strength in the shyness, not talking for the sake of hearing my own voice; instead, I listen and when I do speak, it means more (or at least this is how I spin it). 😉

I must say, I love the concept of answering questions from your readers every month. This is was an amazing read indeed. As someone who has been labelled as 'shy' all her life, I have come to realise that every person individual has a unique way to deal with change, anxiety and life experiences in general. Shyness is indirectly proportional to your level of comfort. Every single person is Shy when it comes to things they are not very comfortable about. And it's not a bad thing at all.

Great read💛
