Bantu’s Comments (group member since Jul 10, 2025)

Bantu’s comments from the The Introvert Readers group.

The moment I was born, I knew something was different. I told my mom, “I'm on the wrong planet,” crying out loud. But she shut my mouth by feeding me. That’s when I realized — I’m stuck here.

I tried to escape the very moment I learned to stand on my own feet. But my mom was always there, watching me. She encouraged me to walk, sure, but I could see it in her eyes — “I’ll never let you walk away.”

I made a couple more attempts after that, but never made it far. So I made a wise choice: I decided to postpone my escape, and stay. Not at home — on this planet. For a bit longer. To explore Earth, its beauty, nature, and the connections we make.

I don’t know when my journey will end here. But until then, I’ll make every moment count. I’m here to make friends — even though I’m an introvert (not from this planet) — I’m keeping myself open to new connections.

Every person is a book. Some are still blank. Some are filled with treasure.

And who am I? I’m an explorer. A treasure hunter. My name is Bantu. I’m 22.
Pleasure to meet you all.
