Thank you for being the reason I finally came out of my shell. Meeting all of you has been one of the best things to ever happen to me. I came to college as a timid young girl who was very unsure of herself and it was a long journey, but I can finally say that I have truly found myself in the past year.

It all started with Alpha Gamma Delta. Being a part of an organization with such strong, kindhearted women has allowed me to learn from my mistakes and love my sisters unconditionally. Each of us has something in common because of our sorority and meeting these girls was such a blessing. I never worry about finding someone to go to dinner with or someone to just sit and watch a movie with.

My sisters have shown me that friends are more important than boys and that we all deserve the very best in life. My sorority gave me something to be proud of and I thank my sisters every day for allowing me to be myself without judgment. Just like real sisters, sometimes we disagree and sometimes we need time away from each other, but in the end, we are all loyal to one another.

I have met some of my closest friends through my sorority and they were there for me when I lost myself for a little while. Sometimes college can be stressful and sometimes we get lost in the craziness of it all, but my sisters never stopped caring about me. I never stopped caring about them. I love them and I am so grateful for meeting them and finally realizing I could be myself. Thank you, Alpha Gamma Delta.
