#20 — Friendship, extraversion, therapy, and poetry

About friendship, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the difference between extraversion and assertiveness, compartmentalising your sociability, becoming more reserved with age (or as an ancient turtle), making friends because of insecurities, dad jokes heard a thousand miles away, bonding over stupidity, bridging the gap between disparate opinions, finding real friends in tough times, extroverts making friends with introverts (through adoption, usually), getting rid of insecurities, Robin Williams, deconstructing oneself through therapy (or just using your friends), psychoanalysis, “Love’s Executioner” by Dr. Irvin D. Yalom, psychological transference, the skill of asking questions, and the poetry of David Whyte.  Maja Malmcrona (@majamalmcrona) is an artist from Sweden.
