My Spirit Animal

You know how people always ask questions like oh if you could be one animal, what would you be? I've always wanted to be something cool like a lion, the king of the jungle or a wolf, sometimes travelling in a pack and sometimes a lone wolf. But one night, I was trying to sleep and for some reason, I was like hm, I'm def not a lion, a lion is the alpha, the top of the food chain, that's definitely not me. I don't think I'm a wolf, wolves are ferocious, calculated...I sat there thinking about my interactions with my friends, with strangers, with people I've just met...and I'm like, hmmm....I've got it...I\m a turtle...LOOOOOL. A turtle is often pretty cautious...withdrawing in it's shell if it senses danger, putting up a guard if it's uncomfortable. That's kinda like me...I pick and choose my moments to let my guard down. I've been told that I can be hard to approach sometimes and that's true, I put up my guard...or I hide in my shell per say. But at the same time I've been told that I'm very friendly and I have a warm personality...so like a turtle...I guess it's 50/50 with me...some days, I'm in my shell and some days I'm not. Sometimes, I get frightened or nervous and hide in my shell and proceed with caution. Funny story, pretty sure I've told this before....couple years ago, I went to this retreat with my 2 friends and we didn't really know anybody. My 2 friends bunked together, so I ended up sharing a room and a bed with a stranger, I ended up being pretty cool with the guy, he was a friendly guy. So we're sleeping, and we're just talking, keep in mind we're in the same bed, he goes hey man...when I saw you walk in with your boys, I told myself, that guy looks really friendly, I sensed that you had a really warm personality and I was right...LOOOOL I was in bed trying to sleep like uh...thanks man, kinda weirded out, but thankful for the compliment lol. Thinking back to that story, it was hilarious lol...The more I think about it, a turtle suits me pretty well, I'm not a very aggressive, violent or physical person, I'm pretty passive, I like to chill and sort things out passively and calmly lol...just call me Franklin I guess.
