Hello docs,.my eyes do itch me, feels dizzy even when just awake from sleep, mostly I feel a foreign object in the eyes. these mostly occur whenever I walk under the sun or when working on my Pc and phone. I visited an eye clinic some days ago, the doctor told me there is a growth in my eyes termed it PTERYGIUM. An eye drop to be used within a month was recommended, Sunshade was also recommended as this as I was told will prevent the penetration of Ultraviolet rays. Since then I have been apprehensive, Don't know if clear sunglasses also prevents UV rays Co's I Don't like the coloured ones.
Thanks for your response.

guy u re right, u must be speaking from experience, we love with our whole heart, this is why sometimes we dont like getting into any relationship,
if there were any unmarried man,that loves lonelyness and didnt get married. then it must be an introvert
.only introverts cry when heart broken cos our hearts is tender
we love to meditate
we love and embrace inner peace, yeah we long for it
we are well informed, with first class information and from a reliable source, e.g infinite intelligence, God.
an unsettled mind or soul can not hear God, even if God speaks he d trhink, its his own mind
People will sometimes call an introvert, saying, YOU DEY DO LIKE WOMAN in pidgin
i love to think and so my mother complains alot about it and whenever alone, she always tell me to socialise with people, but whenever i try to socialise, i feel uncomfortable, my room is my temple, i love lonely street,
i dont patronise shops where 3 or 4 of women are, its a turn off for me, i rather go where theres only 1 person (gays i m not one of u oo)
and i dont like passing through the company of extroverts and female gatherings,
as i speak to you my cousin an extrovert is a turn off for me, seeing he hates quiet times.
ladies think we re cool
in my secondary school days girls were liking me for reasons i dont understand but these days they wanna friendzone and take advantage of me, but i have learnt not to loose guard whenever they re arround

somehow i think the holyspirit himself is an introvert but not shy,
Good to know that I am not alone, I do all that you mentioned. My own room is my life can be indoor throughout the day without anyone noticing, I only go out in the night, my friends call me the "night walker" whenever I visit them.
The extrovert guys just need to understand the way we re made, We aren't snubs or proud as most of them erroneously think.

vikyno:
Kudos to you for such a nice write up there. I think i love it and i share your opinion on most of the points you raised.

But my problem is this "Shy and Introvert" and "Confident and Extrovert" thing. Does it mean all Introverts are not confident? I do not know your definition of confidence but to me, not all Introverts are less confident. I am a living witness. Introvert motivations are quite different from that of the extroverts.

I use to tell people that if i don't talk or do something that others around me do, it doesn't mean that i was afraid or less confident to do such. My interest and motivation makes me to do something or choose to look the other way.
You are right sir, There is a difference between introversion and confidence. An introvert can stand and address a mammoth crowd but relating with the individual in the crowd is a big problem for him.

BlackHuman:
I'm an Introvert....because of my nature different people form different opinions of me-...I've once heard someone say to me; "you're too proud"- I don't mix and talk with everyone like most extroverts would expect...infact, in church today; after service I sat quietly in my seat waiting for the workers' meeting to begin. When my unit leader came to tell me to stand and just talk and mix with people,- in my mind I was like- "what d 4**k am I supposed to say"?,"is it necessary?"...i don't like talking except there's somtin important to say, i'm not d kind dat talks "just to make d place lively",i don't mind long silences, Infact we can travel from lagos to Ibadan together in a vehicle and I won't even mutter a word.....and also i'm tired of hearing friends and family tell me- "hey u no fit even call person since all dis dayz"-In my mind i'm like-"call u for what?"....in my phone there are numbers i've not called since like 3yrs ago...I'm not d kind of guy dat calls "just to sat hi"...it's not like I'm proud, or a dullard, it's just not part of my character.....but I don't have anything against the extroverts, infact I love them, they're entertaining eventho, they could somtimes say downright odd and things like dry jokes, and pointless statements.
Wow!! We kinda share Same personality and view, I just Don't talk or call just for the sake of talking, but when I have something important or discussion about my passion I can talk for hours. I remember a girl sat beside me in the library and for hours I didn't bother to check out who she was or talk to her, she was surprised that she had to look me in the face and strike up a conversation with me.

Can't just stop listening to this,
Eyo. lyrics.
Taxis waiting down on the streets so
Hurry up I have to go
Looking round you see all the people
Making faces very cold
Carry me away
Far from the circle that never breaks
Hey hey hey hey hey
Going home, going home
Where this road goes I already know
Where everybody cares for one another
And they take you as their sister
[Chorus:]
Eyo o, eyo o
Eyo o, eyo o
Where the children run around
There's laughing in the crowd
I hope it still remains the same
Eyo o, eyo o
Eyo o, eyo o
And there's something in the song
That makes you feel at home
And that's what's calling out my name
Eyo o o, eyo o o.
How long when they're ready for takeoff
Tomorrow I could fly away
How she's scared and small all the way up
You might have a sunny day
Draining of me on stage
Five years of aging I'm not afraid
Hey hey hey hey hey
Going home, going home
Where this road goes I already know
Where everybody cares for one another
And they take you as their brother
[Chorus]
O o o o o
Would you take me and embrace me as your own o
Would you take me and embrace me as your own o
[Chorus]

Business › Russian Millionaire Gives Up Fortune To Live As peasant by Hopez456(op): 5:17pm On Jul 29, 2014
A 47-year-old Russian man, German Sterligov
has done what many dare not try.
Hitting limelight at only 24 by becoming Russia’s
first legal millionaire since 1917, Sterligov has
given up all of that wealth and returned to the
countryside to live as a peasant, according to the
BBC.
Even though the financial empire he built – with
offices in London and New York – guaranteed a
lifetime of comfort, the 47-year-old felt he was
better off in the
fringes rather than continue a life of affluence.
After more than 15 years of fame and riches,
Sterligov headed for the woods where he says life
is a bit calm and natural.
“I’m free here. I don’t depend on anyone and me
and my family are totally self sufficient. Most of
my friends thought I had taken leave of my
senses but I think I have been proved right,” he
said.
Sterligov who set up Russia’s first
commodities exchange, had over 2,500
employees at a time and took a shot at the
country’s presidency in the early 2000s.
But sadly, business and politics turned out to be a
lethal combination for him. He was
barred by election officials for odd
reasons, building up huge debts following an
expensive political campaigning.
To cover the debt, he was forced to sell his four-
storey mansion in Moscow’s most exclusive
neighbourhood. But he didn’t
stop there. He thought to himself all material
possessions were vanity and so proceeded in
giving up everything he ever owned.
Apart from selling off all his properties, Sterligov
also gave away shares worth hundreds of millions
of pounds, also asking his wife, Alyona, to trade
her jewellery and designer clothes for the
traditional long skirt and headscarf worn by
Russian peasants.
With almost nothing to their name, the couple and
their four children retreated to the woods. With the
little money they had
left, the Sterligovs built a small log cabin with no
electricity. Ten days after they moved into their
new home, Alyona gave birth to the couple’s fifth
child.
Looking back, the 47-year-old says he has no
regrets: “Not in a million years do I want to be a
businessman with these silly,
shiny badges of success – the Rublyovka
houses, swanky yachts, Bentleys and so on,” he
said. “I’m happy with my peace in the
countryside, and my sheep, along with my wife
and kids. Being super-rich is a kind of slavery
from which we’re free, thankfully.”
As a businessman, he and his family lived in
constant fear of being kidnapped or becoming
victims of contract killing. The
couple had changed their address no less than 23
times in the face of new threats.
“He came home, threw down his jacket, and
suddenly said, ‘I can’t do any more here. Let’s go
and find a new life,’” Alyona, recalls.
Although Sterligov’s two houses are large and
comfortable with a few modern conveniences like
electricity, lavatories and a washing machine,
they don’t own a TV or computer. The children
don’t attend school, either. Instead, they have
old-fashioned tutors who visit their home to
teach them math, history, Russian, and hand-to-
hand combat.
