I think if I went into psychology, I would want to study introversion/extroversion and how it manifests in society and affects every area of people's lives. You could study that for your entire life and it never get tired.
I am slowly, oh so slowly, managing to convince the women's ministry team at my church that NO DON'T JUST HAVE COFFEE AND ASSUME EVERYONE WILL CHAT. Have something to DO.
Oh, church can be really rough in this way! And of course it's totally unintentional on the part of those who run things--most people are extroverts (or at least on the line between the two) and so that's what they know and they don't even realize there's another way of thinking!
My mama was telling me about a book she just read about introversion and the church, actually. I need to get the name of it and then I'll pass it along to you. I really want to read it, as I'm sure it's fascinating.
I wanted to HIT her, because I can't just go and "talk" to people!
YES. I'm trying to find a new church to plug into, and I have no problem walking into service by myself, but going to class by myself? PETRIFYING. And everyone's telling me just to go for and I'm like, "Why do you not understand how hard this is?"

I am passionate as well.
