Dear Tyler #4

Dear Tyler,

Last night we discussed my tendency to complicate things unnecessarily, an unfortunate hangover from my past. I've been thinking about that all day--as you can imagine--and I won't subject you to my thoughts. I know you don't care how the sausage gets made, as long as it gets made.

It's getting made. I know why I did it. Yet I don't yet know why I continue to do it.

I'm considering how exactly to go about changing the way my mind works. Actions to take. When faced with some sort of challenge, how do I keep myself grounded? How do I keep myself focused in times of crisis and discomfort? Why am I so high-strung and sensitive? And why do I jumble facts?

Look, I don't have any answers yet. But I am working on it. I'm aware I had plenty of time before I even met you, but as I've said before, if I had never met you, I never would have wanted to improve myself.

Love,
Jordyn
