Kind and Gentle Souls

I have always been a little rambunctious. I have my quiet moments, sometimes when everybody else is wired, but that doesn't happen too long or too often. Like my uncle used to say, if I kept quiet for 5 minutes the seat of my britches would blow out. :)

Anyway, I think everyone is that way. If they are loud and jovial, they are sometimes quiet, and if they are quiet and shy, they can sometimes be just the opposite. I think it's about 80% to 90% the dominant way and 10% to 20% the other way.

I also noticed that if I'm around one of the quiet ones, I'm quiet and little more than usual and they're more boisterous than usual. But I did enjoy being around the quiet ones, and if those of us who are loud can be called rough and rowdy, then the opposite in my view is kind and gentle.

I bet if you thought for a minute you could think of both types of people. Here are my kind and gentle souls.
