Surviving As An Introvert In An Extroverted World
My name is Jody, and I am an Introvert. Sounds like a weird meeting for some off-beat support group right? If there were actually support groups for the 25% of the population who are Introverts, they would probably have few members, as us Introverts tend to shy away from social gatherings.

Discovering True Self Love
Do you love yourself? Can you honestly say that you love everything about yourself without exception? How about your body? When you look in the mirror do you see a beautiful reflection or a marred one? Go ahead, find a full length mirror and stand naked in front of it. Does the very thought of seeing your own naked body give rise to negative emotions? Or do you feel rather sensuous, even beautiful?... (posted by Jody 3 years 254 days ago.)
