Extrovert/introvert feeling disconnected these days
“I guess you could say I’m a disconnected kind of person. I mean, I like getting out and about, but I like my privacy as well. It’s like being an extrovert and introvert at the same time. I think there are other people in the world like that. You kind of just mind your own business, stay to yourself, and not really get into any drama.
“Some of that has to do with how crazy things are these days. You don’t want to fly. You don’t want to go to school. You don’t want to go to church. You worry about gunmen. You worry about this. You worry about that.
“You see so much of it on TV and social media. It’s one of the reasons I’m not really on Facebook anymore. There’s just too much, you know?
“I think technology is a gift and a curse. It’s supposed to bring people together, but it really doesn’t. With all these gadgets and interactive devices, it’s probably the best time to be alive right now. Yet you sometimes feel alone in the world.”
