I’m not weak, though quiet people often come across that way.
This song always reminds me of you.
You have taught me so many lessons.
When it’s important to be quiet.
When it’s important to jump up and down screaming until someone (::coughPrattcough::) listens to you.
To take on projects in a thoughtful way.
To use painters tape, because no, my hand will not be steady enough near the ceiling and yes I will get paint on the outlet covers.
To find creative ways to survive eating only Ramen Noodles.
How to shut up when someone is venting at you and stop throwing solutions at them, when solutions aren’t what they are looking for.
That you can come apart, and come back together again.
How to support someone in a project they are taking on in their life, there’s so much I wouldn’t have accomplished without you.
How to laugh until crying.
How to take space away from the crowd and re-charge your batteries.
That being quiet does not equal being weak.
That complete opposites can be best friends. Family.
You may be small, you may be quiet, but you are “scrappy”… and you have been strong for me when I have been weak. You have had faith, when I have had none. You have thrown a bag of trash at my ex-boyfriend at his place of employment when he cheated on me.
You hold 15 years of my life, my memories, my heart.
I love you, my introvert!
Thanks for all the life lessons.
