Let me try again. This is yet another new argument:
Brief Description Of My Worldview: I am going to give a very brief description of my worldview which is just a couple of paragraphs. Good and bad are commonly viewed as things on the "outside" such as it being a good thing to help others or it being a bad thing to harm others. But my worldview directs good and bad inward. That is, my worldview focuses on our inner universe rather than the outer universe since it is our inner universe which is so precious and vital. After all, our inner universe (mental reality) is the very thing that allows us to see good and bad value in our lives in the first place. Without our inner universe, then we would either be dead, unconscious, or just non sentient machines. Your life could be a beautiful and luxurious paradise on the outside. But as long as your inner universe is completely empty and meaningless, then your life would be empty and meaningless.
None of those fancy and luxurious things would be anything good in your life at all. So, instead of good and bad being these mere concepts or ideas that we focus on, they would instead be our own inner light and inner darkness (our positive and negative emotions). Therefore, I think introverts had it right all along rather than extroverts. After all, it's what's on the inside that truly matters. As long as you have the inner light, then things on the outside would be good in your life and your life would be beautiful. As long as you have the inner darkness, then your life would be shit. When I say that your life would either be beautiful or shit or that things are good or beautiful in your life, then what I mean by that is simply the fact that, again, your inner universe would be something beautiful or shit which would make everything on the outside perceived as beautiful or shit.
