FHE scavenger hunt

Yesterday for Family Home Evening my “family” and I did a scavenger hunt, and it was a blast. We had to do everything from shoot a 3 pointer on the basketball court to giving out numerous “high-fives” in order to win. As we were going to different apartments in our ward I realized how many people I didn’t know and who didn’t know me, and that made me realize something. It made me realize how important it is to put yourself out there and to be kind. I am a very naturally shy person, and I usually have to psych myself up before I will talk to someone new, but when I put myself out there last night, people were very open and kind to me. I met several new people in my ward and felt great afterwards. And I don’t know if you can necessarily call this “bucket list worthy”, but I have made a personal goal with myself to be friendlier. I am going to start out small with something like giving one compliment a day and by just smiling at people. Eventually I hope I will be able to make friends wherever I am and be able to comfortably chat with anyone J
