Fab composition! Love the placement of journaling in the circle and the stitching is a nice touch. I can pretty much relate to this as I'm also an introvert.
Whatever you are, the important thing is to feel good about yourself. I know the feeling of getting burned by those "best" or not so best friends. Everybody has been let down. Beautiful page with a very good photo that matches the mood. It was really interesting to read your journaling.
