Understanding Community Needs
The concept of community is often misunderstood, particularly regarding different personality types. Introverts may not feel the same need for social engagement as extroverts, leading to feelings of inadequacy when community is emphasized as a societal virtue. True community doesn't require numerous friendships; rather, a few genuine connections can suffice. The idea that community should consist of many active relationships can put unnecessary pressure on those who thrive in solitude.
