Dear August,
I have this issue.
Yes, another one.
For some reason it takes me a little too long to completely open up to people. I don't know why, but I just naturally crawl up in my shell until far down the road when something just switches and I finally crack myself open a bit. Even then, it's always little by little.
Don't get me wrong. I'd consider myself a pretty friendly person, but it's easy to crack jokes all day to strangers and have a good time without ever actually saying or doing anything meaningful. It's something I'm really trying to work on. The weird irony is I am typically the type of person that hates doing or saying things that aren't meaningful.
I have been in this ward for three months now and I have felt so much love throughout my entire time here, but it is only now (when I'm leaving) that I have subconsciously decided to let these incredible people crack that stupid shell of mine.
Heavenly Father placed me in this ward because He knew I needed it. He seems to always know exactly who or what I need. He knew I needed to be surrounded by these awesome people with their awesome testimonies and their awesome love.
Yet another thing I'm indebted to Him for.
Love,
Jazmin
