Just a thought that occurred to me today. We normally think of extroverts as people-persons, and by definition, "outgoing".
Introverts, meanwhile, are considered "withdrawn" and inward-looking.
That's SUCH an extrovert thing to say!
Extroverts are actually inward-looking! They look only at each other, at the human face. They look inward, at the tribe.
Introverts look outwards into the far vaster non-human world. The world of matter and energy, physics, chemistry and nature. They turn their back on the tribe and face the stars, zillions of them, across zillions of lightyears of space.
