Terra's Past Letters

"I don't have too many friends."
(Continued)

Hey Terra,

I have everything that I want to say in my head, ready to be packaged and delivered. But sometimes I just get so nervous when everyone turns to look at me. I start to talk, but then when I see all the faces turning to me, I start to stutter. And I don't really look at my friends when I am talking because I feel so "in the center of attention."

Shy

Dear Shy,

I'm sure what you have to say is brilliant. I can tell you're very intelligent by the way you express yourself. So try taking a couple of slow deep breaths to calm yourself down before you speak. You can do this! Your friends will support you. So you've got a "friendly" audience.

Practice breathing and you'll calm down.

In friendship,

Terra
