I’m not going to shy away from continuing to uncover the reasons I am me. Let’s continue our journey on discovering the extroverted introvert personality traits. https://www.kazakers.com. https://www.theproagewomen.com

This title is pretty self-explanatory. It’s a bit self-deprecating. One of those AHA moments, pull up your boots, in poetic form. https://www.kazakers.com https://www.theproagewoman.com

I never get tired of learning more about myself. I know there are a lot of people out there who want to know what makes them tick. I’m not going to stop until I’ve completed the 50 or 60 traits of the extroverted introvert. Here are three more for your education and enjoyment. https://www.kazakers.com https://www.theproagewoman.com

The three traits I talk about today are: people mistyping you as an extrovert, preferring to say what’s on your mind and not beating around the the bush, and really loving to read books and watch movies. Have a listen for more details. https://www.kazakers.com https://theproagewoman.com/e-magazine/

The First Appearance was written from a view of the first snow of the season when I was in Portland, Oregon early one winter. It had a very profound affect on me. I hope you enjoy it. https://www.kazakers.com https://theproagewoman.com/e-magazine/

I found myself in several situations recently that made it incredibly obvious that these two traits are SO ME! If you are an extroverted introvert, I would be more than willing to bet they are so you, too. Have a listen to find out what they are. https://www.kazakers.com

One more poem from my first book of poetry: Singsong Crows and Alphabet Soup. Nature Accepts You.

The trees,

the birds,

the wind

accept you for who you are.

Accept you no matter what state you’re in.

If there is pain,

if there is joy,

if there is apathy,

nature embraces you unconditionally.

The wind does not cease to blow.

The sun does not cease to shine.

The birds do not cease to sing and serenade.

Grass continues to grow soft under your feet.

Plants flower.

Ants scurry up and into their hill.

The tide continues to release and absorb,

release and absorb.

As you walk in nature

you’re not judged,

criticized

or ridiculed.

Take nature not for granted.

It has never taken you for granted.

It loves you without care for

your size,

your shape,

color,

or culture.

Move about in nature to know

what it truly means to be free.

No matter what state you’re in,

nature accepts you for who you are.

There are quite a few individual traits and connected traits for the extroverted introvert. I’m just getting started. Here I give you three more. It’s a very interesting journey. www.kazakers.com www.theproagewoman.com

From my first book of poetry: Singsong Crows and Alphabet Soup. Keep your mind gentle.

Like summer breezes.

Move gently.

Like the Anhinga bird.

Keep your mind gentle.

If you do not

poison will spread

through your veins

and ooze from your pores

undetected until the acid

singes your sinews.

Keep your mind gentle,

lest pain seep into your muscles

like molten lava.

Lest stiffness in your joints

stoop your back

and dull the luster in your eyes.

Keep your mind gentle.

Or words shall falter

between your mind

and your lips.

Keep your mind gentle.

One of my favourite subjects is AGEISM. Not because I love it but because it’s necessary to have an ongoing dialogue with people of ALL ages about it. If we don’t discuss it, if we don’t educate people, if we don’t bring in into the light it will never change. I’m proud to be Resident Poet at The Proage Woman Magazine. We are a group of fierce, determined, valuable, enthusiastic, loving and compassionate women leading the way to educate the world about ageism. Sometimes it feels like a daunting task, but it is a very necessary one. And despite what you might think, we have a lot of fun, too.
