It’s a little nod to Wayne’s World, but instead of ‘party time, excellent’ (if you are aware of the cult nineties classic) I will be diving into one WORD each day. It could be something I learned, something bizarre that happened, a favourite word that I have rediscovered or just a thought that won’t leave me alone.

Today’s word is GREGARIOUS.

I heard this word today and it was love at first sound. I’m not sure if I have heard it before or not but when I looked it up, I thought, yes that’s me, I am gregarious…although maybe not all the time!

Gregarious is one of those words that sounds a little grand, but really it just means describing someone who is sociable, outgoing, and enjoys being around others. A gregarious person thrives in company, loves conversation, and often draws energy from being part of a group.

I do love being in a group and I absolutely love connection, however, there are times where I like solitude, peace and quiet to reflect or relax. Also, as much as I love being sociable, in large groups where others are very vocal, I tend to slip into the background as I don’t have the energy or will to be centre of attention or having to shout to be heard.
