Everything And Me.

It's really a no brainer to say that we humans are social beings, like I even sometimes wonder myself how it is that we manage to do a whole lot of things , like common , take myself for example, not that I don't like social gatherings, Nah! , I do it's just that sometimes I like being in my own space.

I imagine how people who love parties , and also who have work to go to , I imagine how they managed to combine all their activities without getting tired or feeling sick, because I for one do get tired of being outside my house for a long time, imagine I went to church yesterday and you know service closes by 12 pm , still I didn't go home , cause it a family church , so we had to stay and say hello to people that we will still see again next week Sunday.

Sometimes I wonder if I am an extrovert like I call myself because I really am sociable with people but you see being outdoors often , Nah! It's not my thing.

So how do I manage my life , School, kids, social gatherings etc , well this is what I do , before any social event , I just mentally prepared myself like I tell my body that ,”see we have to be out of the house for so so and so period of time “ and I think when I do that my body cooperates with me.

Even though I prefer being alone most of the time , I can't actually be alone all the time , even when I'm in school , I prefer being alone , someone once asked me if I had a beef with my friends and I was wondering what she asked that question , she said , she noticed that whenever they were going out to get things that I somehow exclude myself from it and that she sees that I am always going to another place if there there lots people where I was.

I think I do this thing unconsciously because, sometimes I am always In thoughts about things and when they is noise wherever I am it always distorts my thoughts and I get headaches. Though I didn't give this lady an answer I just smiled and left the question unanswered and that was what brought up the thought of if I was really an extrovert ? .. well I can't tell how social I am anymore.

Let just say I stay connected to everything and everyone by a calculated means which I subconsciously do , I mentally prepared myself for anything I want to do ahead, I tell myself to be calm at certain things or at certain places , even with the kids , I have time planned out to which I take care of their need and when they have play time, only grace here is that I have my younger sisters around me that also monitor the kids activities , cause taking care of children is a lot of work and capital, so let just say that everything is prioritized according to how they are and how it comes to me . So I don't get overwhelmed in doing whatever I have to do.

Since I have few friends and then there's my family who understands that I like being alone and will only sit with them when its necessary , I think that's all I need.

It is only when one has plenty of friends that they will try to keep up with all of them , because having many friends means you have the time to accommodate them all .
I think we all have our ways of being sociable. It just depends on the individual it concerns.
