Socially Ambiguous

Socially Ambiguous is a collection of poetry highlighting the introvert who feels vulnerable in social settings but is determined to be a part of them and wants to find the compromise between the two.Dear Reader,I used to get a pit in my stomach before going to social events. I thought I just ate something wrong. I thought that this was just normal for me or maybe that something was wrong with me. I realized years later that I get anxious in social settings. As I worked through this realization, I put myself out there with some trial and error. I tried to reinvent myself in college as someone who could talk to anybody, and I accomplished it. But then I didn’t have quiet. I knew so many people and was in the habit of hanging with people all the time. It didn’t feel like me.I decided to back it off and go back to as much me time as possible. Well, that felt empty. There had to be a compromise. That compromise became what I now call being socially ambiguous.I crave my alone time. I recharge that way. But, I also want to have connections with humans, where have a mutual understanding of our faults and choose to love through them. As I continue searching for this, I will keep improving what I have.This book is different from other ones because it focuses on different nature, human nature. It feels vulnerable. In my vulnerability, I hope to connect with readers who will finally feel understood. Here’s to our understanding of ourselves and each other.           Yours,           Sarah
