Day 23

Something you wish you had done in your life.

In thinking about this I decided that

I wish I would have been more open with telling people what I feel about them and being more affectionate.

You know, I've never been the super touchy feely type. I never gAve people hugs just because or knwin what to do in situations that might require me being affectionate. I always envied the friends who hugged each other when saying hello or goodbye, even if they knew that they would see each other the next day.

On my mission I wasn't allowed to hug very many people. Not even my mission president, the
Man who was like my second father and saw me cry all the time.
Coming home I realized that I wanted to hug more people.

So I do. I'm not saying that I'm always hugging everyone, but I've made great strides. I can hug Dan now all the time. And my roomies. And my brother. Ha.

I'll keep trying it. Anyone who wants a free hug, just ask! :)
