Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk.
This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days.
Myth #2 – Introverts are shy.
Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don’t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don’t worry about being polite.
Myth #3 – Introverts are rude.
Introverts often don’t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting.
Myth #4 – Introverts don’t like people.
On the contrary, Introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close friends on one hand. If you are lucky enough for an introvert to consider you a friend, you probably have a loyal ally for life. Once you have earned their respect as being a person of substance, you’re in.
Myth #5 – Introverts don’t like to go out in public.
Nonsense. Introverts just don’t like to go out in public FOR AS LONG. They also like to avoid the complications that are involved in public activities. They take in data and experiences very quickly, and as a result, don’t need to be there for long to “get it.” They’re ready to go home, recharge, and process it all. In fact, recharging is absolutely crucial for Introverts.
Myth #6 – Introverts always want to be alone.
Introverts are perfectly comfortable with their own thoughts. They think a lot. They daydream. They like to have problems to work on, puzzles to solve. But they can also get incredibly lonely if they don’t have anyone to share their discoveries with. They crave an authentic and sincere connection with ONE PERSON at a time.
Myth #7 – Introverts are weird.
Introverts are often individualists. They don’t follow the crowd. They’d prefer to be valued for their novel ways of living. They think for themselves and because of that, they often challenge the norm. They don’t make most decisions based on what is popular or trendy.
Myth #8 – Introverts are aloof nerds.
Introverts are people who primarily look inward, paying close attention to their thoughts and emotions. It’s not that they are incapable of paying attention to what is going on around them, it’s just that their inner world is much more stimulating and rewarding to them.
Myth #9 – Introverts don’t know how to relax and have fun.
Introverts typically relax at home or in nature, not in busy public places. Introverts are not thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies. If there is too much talking and noise going on, they shut down. Their brains are too sensitive to the neurotransmitter called Dopamine. Introverts and Extroverts have different dominant neuro-pathways. Just look it up.
Myth #10 – Introverts can fix themselves and become Extroverts.
Introverts cannot “fix themselves” and deserve respect for their natural temperament and contributions to the human race. In fact, one study (Silverman, 1986) showed that the percentage of Introverts increases with IQ.

Hari ini dalam sejarah.
Sedang kami membesar,
Kami sedar perbezaan yang wujud sesama kami,
Kami nilai, keji, benci sesama sendiri,
Atas dasar perbezaan.
Perbezaan ini bakal/pasti pecah belahkan kami,
Perbezaan ini telah pecah belahkan kami!
Ini semua bakal cetus perang dunia ketujuh.
Besok pagi, aku mahu bangun semula dan kenal pasti
Mengapa perbezaan ini tidak di rayai?
Persahabatan yang konon nya takkan mati,
sedang di pajak gadai dengan harga lelong.
Hari ini dalam sejarah,
Aku faham erti persahabatan.
MELAYUSIA BOLEH!

Salam. Aku kecewa melihat anak bangsa bagak meninggi dada sesama sendiri sedangkan sedarah, serumpun. Aku kecewa melihat anak bangsa masih berkejaran tanpa arah, tidak punya sifat dahagakan ilmu pengetahuan. Aku kecewa melihat anak bangsa yang tidak punya sifat ingin maju, hanya mengikut peredaran zaman tanpa soal, tanpa maklum seperti gerombolan biri biri. Aku jelak dengan mereka yang diberikan jutaan peluang, namun tidak punya sifat hijrah yang tinggi, hanya mereka selesa dengan kehidupan yang serba-serbi. Aku sedih melihat anak bangsa sendiri berpecah belah, mempraktis hierarki kolot sesama bangsa, egois merebut kuasa yang tak wujud. Aku bosan dengan hujah tak berasas, perbualan kosong dan aku malu kita hilang moraliti. Aku malu dengan anak bangsa yang membenci bangsa lain, toleransi tidak diperlukan lagi disini tetapi penerimaan, itu lebih penting. Aku malu dengan gelagat anak bangsa yang bertelagah sesama sendiri akibat kejahilan titisan alkohol murah. Pengertian matang itu sendiri, perlu dipersoalkan dan dikupas kembali. Definisi kehidupan sangat subjektif bagi setiap individu dan itu tidak perlu dibahaskan, jalan berlainan menuju arah yang sama. Mari sama-sama kita minta pada Azzawajalla agar pencerahan hati dan minda didatang kan pada anak bangsa, aku, kau, kita.

Idealism.
Experience is ultimately based on mental activity. It is contrasted with realism, in which the external world is said to have an apparent absolute existence. The only things which can be directly known for certain are just ideas.
Realism.
Reality exists independently of observers. In ethics, moral realism takes the view that there are objective moral values. Representative realism claims that humans cannot perceive the external world directly.
Empiricism.
Knowledge arises from evidence gathered via sense experience. Empiricism emphasizes the role of experience and evidence, especially sensory perception, in the formation of ideas, over the notion of innate ideas or tradition.
Hedonism. Pleasure is the only intrinsic good. Actions can be evaluated in terms of how much pleasure they produce. In very simple terms, a hedonist strives to maximize the pleasure and minimize the pain.
Relativisim. Points of view have no absolute truth or validity, having only relative, subjective value according to differences in perception and consideration. Principles and ethics are regarded as aplicable in only limited context.
Free will.
Agents have the ability to make choices. Individuals can be held morally accountable for their actions. An omnipotent divinity does not assert its power over the will and choices of individuals.
Nihilism.
Life is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value. Morality does not inherently exist and any established moral values are abstractly contrived. Knowledge is not possible and some aspects of reality do not exist as such.
Determinism.
Events within a given paradigm are bound by causality in such a way that any state of an object or event is determined by prior states. Every type of event, including human cognition (behaviour, decision, and action), is causally determined by previous events.
Existentialism.
Individual is solely responsible for giving his or her own life meaning and for living that life passionately and sincerely, dealing with his or her conditions, emotions, actions, responsibilities, and thoughts.
Deism.
Reason and observation of the natural world, without the need for organised religion, can determine that a supreme being created the universe. This deity does not intervene in human affairs or suspend the natural laws of the universe.
Humanism.
Human being can lead happy and functional lives, and are capable of being ethical and moral, without religion or dogma. Life stance emphasises the unique responsibility facing humanity and the ethical consequences of human decisions.
Dualism.
Mind and matter are fundamentally distinct kinds of substances. Human beings have both of them, mind or soul and body. Moral dualism is the belief of the greater complement or conflict between the good and the evil.
