I prefer black to pink.
Self discovery is such an interesting thing.
There are some part of us that we don't know exist until life, people, or certain situations brings them out.
For the longest time, I considered myself as a very reserved person because I enjoy being alone most of the time. But I noticed something recently… the moment I meet the right people I genuinely connect with, my whole energy changes instantly. I become more lively, expressive, and talkative. I really enjoy those moments of myself.
A few weeks ago, I had a little issue with my siblings and my youngest sister mentioned something that made me pause. She said:
Big sis, you usually sound cold when you reply to chats.
At first, I was surprised because I’m actually very expressive on phone calls. But then it clicked…
I genuinely prefer talking over chatting.
When I’m on a call, I can feel the emotions, tones, pauses, excitement, sarcasm, even sadness.
It makes me feel more connected to people. But with chats, I sometimes struggle to feel that same connection because texts can easily be misunderstood.
And honestly, I just recently became fully aware of that about myself.
I complained to my friends that we haven't talked in a while and they always have the same reply.“But we chat often.”
To them, chatting was enough but To me, it wasn’t the same thing at all.
You keep learning new things about yourself as you grow and that's one interesting thing about self discovery.
Have discovered anything new about yourself recently?
