Farouche


I like this word. 

What does it mean? The dictionary gives the following...

  1. [child, animal] timid, shy;
    [adult] unsociable;
  1. [look, warrior] fierce;
  1. [enemy, hatred] bitter;
    [adversary] fierce;
    [supporter] staunch;
    [will] iron.
  2. [adj] wild (untamed)

English: shy - wild

I think it describes me. I am definitely timid and shy, sometimes unsociable. For the right causes, I can be fierce and staunch supporter. And when I know something is right, see my iron will stand. Sadly, there was a time that I have become bitter over friends who betrayed me. But I have learned to forgive them and be free. And yes, I have the tendency to be wild... in the sense that my thoughts and actions can sometimes be unpredictable. I cannot always follow the norm. 

In a word, I am shy-wild.

  1. At least shy-wild is better than unsociably wild. Hehe. Me, I'm just shy. LOL!
