Introvert & Extrovert Personalities on Parade

The writing of my ‘next’ book was, I believed, to be a simple matter. However, this has proven not to be the case. It started simply, but as I began to delve into it, ‘it’ began to unfold in a manner that was not as I thought it would be. No; it has grown to be rather an interesting and vastly different matter than first I thought.

It will be done; just not in my time. No; The C.C. continue to inspire me to delve even more deeply. The following two writings that I received and transcribed during 2016 are evidence of ‘delving deeper’ . They have formed yet another layer of the ‘book’ and have taken their place amongst the writings thus far. (For reference – ‘Little One’ was their name for me back then.)

Personality: Introvert

Our Little One asks that we speak upon the subject of Personality. Indeed, Dear Heart, we shall inform our readers regarding the principle of personality.

Most, if not all individuals, place themselves within the realms of ‘introvert’ and ‘extrovert’. However, Dear Ones, there are a multitude of personality types, indeed. To limit oneself to the idiom of, let us say, an introvert would be to say that all individuals playing sport are sportsmen and women. Nothing could be further from the truth, as we hasten to say:

Those of you who have chosen to perfect yourself within one arena of sport, or sports, could easily be called a sportsman or woman. However, and for the purpose of clarification, those playing sports, though without the desire to further themselves within the sporting arena would not, nor could not adhere to the supposition inherent within the term, indeed.

As this as a guide we shall now speak upon the concept of introversion. A choice, Dear Hearts, is all. Each has a choice to select the personality traits to be experienced within the fantasy of Earth for the purpose of overcoming said personality; to be sure, Dear Ones.

Do not believe that you are limited to the personality traits that you have chosen. Should you wish to engage with said personality traits, then so be it. However, should you feel uncomfortable within the confines of your personality traits there is little reason to remain bound.

Indeed, our Dear Heart Carolyn was, as a child, an introvert extraordinaire. She had little time for other humans, preferring her own company. As she progressed through life she found it necessary to engage with others. This was not an easy task for her. It pained her to interact with what she considered to be angry, uncontrolled demons who were hell bent on making her life a misery.

(We speak candidly, Dear Heart, so as to alert our readers to the truth.)

It wasn’t until we introduced ourselves to her, during her 3rd decade, that she found it a pleasure to interact. However, Dear Hearts, the interaction she enjoyed was with spirit, so called. Yes indeed, Carolyn found the communication with ‘spirit’ to be calming and beneficial to her mind. We, fostering this communication, brought understanding to her jangled nerves, and slowly but surely confidence grew.

Today, many years later, our Dear Heart Carolyn enjoys communicating the words of love; never tiring of such communication. And this we say to all who consider themselves amongst the introverted:

Communication, tinged with the heart, with love, will bring its rewards; the rewards of companionship and calm. You will discover, as did our Dear Heart Carolyn; introversion has been maligned erroneously.

Introversion is a personality trait chosen by those who desire to have a greater experience; an experience enveloping the heart, indeed. When understood in its proper form the (so called) introvert can, as our Dear Heart Carolyn, enjoy the closest of relationships with all (so called) personality types.

We wish you well upon your journey of discovering, as Carolyn, the joys of acceptance, and enjoyment of self.

Personality: Extrovert

Indeed we will, dearest. The Little One has asked that we speak upon the personality trait: Extroversion.

We have spoken about the personality trait of introversion:

Introversion (or shyness in its extreme) is on the other end, Dear Hearts. We explained that our dearest Carolyn, chose this personality trait and spent many decades overcoming the debilitating effects.

Extroversion, on the other hand is, as you would think, the opposite. Indeed it is, Dear Hearts. The extrovert enjoys all types of enjoyable company, especially when he/she has centre stage, indeed. The actors of the world, in general, lie in-between these two traits, Dear Hearts. They are neither one nor the other. Surprised? Yes, we thought this may surprise.

The extrovert is an attention seeker. His/her personality expects a certain savoir-faire to be evidenced whilst preening and, in general, basking in the limelight. The extrovert welcomes not only attention, but extreme attention; central attention is best.

The Little One asks if this ‘need’ becomes exhausting?

Yes, and no, dearest. The true extrovert is given the energy required for their choice until they choose otherwise. That is, dearest, like the introvert who chooses another course, the extrovert, when ready to compose themselves, to gain command over the incessant desire for attention, will slow down naturally. They will become more calm, more able to allow others a little limelight, so to speak.

Just as the true introvert can, and does, achieve success over the personality choice, so too the extrovert. A matter of desire and intention, dearest.

Many Blessings to All
