Introvert, is a word that is no longer undefined for all of us now as we are a part of society where we are familiar with a large section of society having a personality type known as Introversion. Introverted people found it quite unbearable to have a perfect conversation with others, rather they find themselves sheltered to only their thoughts and notions, as they are only confined to a very small section of society. Although introverted people want to participate in the conversation of extroverts, they cannot do so because they cannot make themselves fit in that so-called conversation, or probably extroverts might not find the notions of introverted people relevant perhaps because they are not so engaged in the matters of society. Extroverted people find introverted people quite monotonous as they are confined only to their world. It has been observed that introverted people are neglected by society. I too have done a lot of research on this most underrated topic, being an introvert, I want to raise the voice of introverted people and want to show the world that the life of an introvert is not easy. I had the privilege of asking introverted people how society treats them and wasn’t amused after knowing they are also going through that same situation.

Here is an article on an Introvert child, well it is my own story of the true incidences that occurred in my life during a school tour. This article perfectly shows that introverted people are neglected by society.

Chapter 1
The Life of an Introvert

Haa, Haa, Haa the bus was all-inclusive with laughter from that side to that side like a ringtone evoked from a mobile. Nevertheless, I was struggling to manage my anxiety amid the bus of 40, sitting on the corner with none to chatter about and just pondering, “was that the right decision”, the decision of going on a school tour, even being aware that I’ll be alone there. But peer pressure said,” You have to”. I went ahead and started packing those outfits once I had purchased for the tour but for the one with my parents I sat in the car and said an overwhelming goodbye to my mother with eyes full of tears never the less she said “I am departing you for the first time for this much long time “her hands on my hand give me a sensational relief but that not for too long, the car moves and our hands departed from each other.

Chapter 2
Struggles on the bus

My father left me at school with luggage and I sat on the bus on a seat of 3, why? because three of my classmates, Nishant, Yash and Aryan enthusiastically answered that they will be there with me throughout the tour, well even they did but just the sake that they were not aware of the presence of their friends on the last seat of the bus. It was 7 in the evening with the sun setting with an elegant orange light which obliged me to think that now it was all perfect. Nevertheless, after quite a short time I was able to deeply think and understand that the time was not mine rather I had used it in the wrong way. Two of my classmates went to their friends’ seats and till the time we reached the hotel I was alone sitting and fondly thinking of my decision. Abruptly the bus stopped and we entered the Royal marvellous hotel.

Chapter 3
The view from the hotel

With a large space in the hall with the reception in the corner, the hotel looked fantabulous, and our emotions were compulsive. Although we all were quite unprecedented that are School had booked such kind of Hotel, the crowd gathered and sir asked us to take the room key having a quadruple sharing, although I was not comfortable despite such uncomfortability I managed to share the room with 3 others, Initially, it opted that I and three of my classmates would be sharing a single room we entered the room and was quite amused well not in the bed omen rather because of the view of the beautiful lakes of Udaipur, My heart broaden with a fine and strong satisfaction that I wouldn't be feeling lonely as the lakes and the cool Breeze would not let me do so. It was evening in Udaipur at 5:15 p.m., someone knocks on the door initially we thought of the room service but just after a few seconds our illusion scattered into pieces, I opened the door and found what our other classmate Aman with his luggage entered the room and desperately said that he wants to stay in our room as he had a big quarrel with Devansh and Vansh with whom Aman was sharing a room I abruptly agreed and politely answered “yeah sure” but the room was of four and no more space for not even a single more to adjust. I said that how will we be adjusting then Nishant answered that he will be going and sharing the room with Vansh and Devansh where Aman quarrelled because as Aman had come into our room there might be a space left for one to accommodate but Aman looked at me and answered that he does not want to send Nishant to the room of Devansh and Vansh and indirectly looked at me with the hope I’ll leave. Well, I must say I am a stoic kind of personality who always try to balance everyone and always try to feel empathy towards other, nevertheless not even a single person cares what I feel or how would I be feeling after such circumstances, anyways I left the room and join other to just have a room which was not meant for me. Again no one even had the guilt of it which means I am nothing to anyone.

Chapter 4
Sightseeing and return journey home.

Our schoolteacher asked all of us to come down for sightseeing. I went down and had breakfast while sitting alone at the corner table. Shh-Shh-Shh noise came, well it was not a shoot of a horror scene but of course, our teacher asked us to keep quiet. I finished breakfast and consequently sat on the bus on the seat of 2 alone, All the seats were occupied but only mine was left, the bus started and I was still alone by this time seeing me alone all the time my juniors asked me if I don't have any friend or I just want to sit alone, well who the hell would be answering this silly question as who would love to be alone all the time, I remain silent again pondering was that the right decision. We reached the famous Chittorgarh Fort where our buses were parked down the hill and now we were supposed to go by rickshaws on the Fort on the top of the hill. The school teachers arrange the autos but only 8 people can be accommodated in one single auto we all made the group of 8 but the group of which I was a part of had nine people so sir asked one of us to go in another auto rickshaw all just started pairing their friends but again I was alone unfortunately only I was left all of them just started shouting that Divyansh would go in another auto well as we all are aware that majority always wins I left the group and join another. Again no one even cared how I would feel. After sightseeing we all packed up in our buses again and moved towards our school after 12 hours of continuous driving we all reached school, fortunately safely. I took my luggage and went outside the school as my father was waiting for me outside.

Well, hope this article will be a game-changer for many. It might change the vision of people that how introverted people face difficulties. And are always neglected by society. People should understand that being an introvert is not easy. They should understand that introverted people are also a part of society, and their views matter. People should give introverted people a chance to put their views forward. Introverted people should also be quite determined about their notions as they are not the side factor of society whose notions are usually neglected.

Thank You.
