I asked Faith to try and put into words what it was like to be an introvert so I could help get the idea across to my readers. This is the story she told me.My husband has an uncle who is clearly an introvert.
I've heard him called "quirky", "cold and humorless", "reclusive" and "a strange bird". He married into our very large family and has been dragged to every family gathering for nearly 50 years ? always sitting off by himself reading a book or watching TV ? never talking to anyone while everybody else socializes, eats and plays games.Last year, I drew his name for the Christmas gift exchange and was stymied about what he'd like.

I got him the nicest ones I...

Can Get Well Gifts By Mail Help Spur A Speedy Recovery?
(ContentDesk) March 31, 2006 -- There are inevitable situations in life that
must be faced regarding a friend or relative suffering from an illness or recovering from an accident that has caused bodily harm.
There are two choices on how to act. A person can elect to stand-by idly and let life decide the outcome. The other option is for someone to take a stand of offering sincere support on behalf of the stricken ally in this thing called life.
A decision for the latter would prove a level of selflessness in a selfish world.
It would show that a bounty of kindness is willing to be shared with our less fortunate brothers and sisters. Our attention to the healing aspect of life can be expressed through the powerful spiritual tools of prayer and companionship.
