I'm an introvert. I've always had strong control over my passions and desires. It's no big deal, really. I don't mind showing it if I'm happy, i.e I'll crack a little smile, but most of the time I'm straightfaced. I'd say my emotions share a little room five doors down the hall from Logic and Reason, who I trust the most.
I also play piano, and my playing is disgustingly mechanical and emotionless. All my friends said, "Just let it out." Well, if I could do that, I wouldn't have a problem.
Emotions make me awkward and I'm not so good with them. Especially not in front of an audience.
I'm paradoxically inwardly-focused and really self-conscious. Probably because I'm 15.
It's not that I'm afraid of what people will think of my piano playing, but as much as I want to open up to be a better musician, I almost get angry at people for wanting me to show them my most private aspect as a performance.
That got off-topic.
Basically, is there a way I can become more open?
