Not everyone knows how to communicate their emotions. Some of them find it hard to express what they truly feel inside. So if you are surrounded by this kind of people, then please be patient with them. There’s a reason why they act that way.

So instead of pushing them to go outside of their shell, try to be more considerate and just be that person who cheers them up, especially in moments when they can’t understand themselves. Learn to support them, and just…
