A Letter to My Best Friend

Thank You

Dear Best,

Thank you for entering my life. I strongly believe in having "a person," and there is no better person to fit that description than you. For the last two years of my life, I have been through so many different stages, like graduating, falling out with friends, a new school, and through all of the good and bad times, you have been with me. I couldn't thank you enough for that. To me, it is so important for your friends to be proud of you when you get a new job, learn something new, or just accomplish big things. But it's also really important for your friends to just be proud that you got out of bed that day, so today, January 7, I am so proud of you for waking up and just having a day!

I want you to know, I don't need a large group of friends when I have one that constantly reminds me all of the time that they are there for me in every way possible. I thought my whole life that I knew what a best friend was, but I was wrong. You've given those words a whole different meaning. Nobody could ever compare to you. I used to think a best friend was sleep overs, reckless activities, and spending every day together. I was wrong. A best friend is not seeing them all the time and still being so close it blows your mind, or getting so excited to see the other one when it might have only been a day that you've been apart, being able to call them at any time of day because you need them, feeling like you always have someone in your corner. Or just you, you are a best friend. Having you as my best has made every individual day better. And I hope to never lose that.

If for any reason, we ever fight about something, and I mean really fight about something, I will always want to fix it. I hope you stay around for a long time, because I want you in my life forever. You have made my life so much better since you entered it and the memories that we have made together are one in a million. With that being said, I hope you know how much I appreciate you, how much I appreciate everything that you do for me. And I hope that you know I would do anything for you, without even hesitating because you're my best friend.

Friends come and go, and relationships with people change over the years and that is okay. If there is ever a time that it seems like we're fading or something is changing, know that I hold the relationship that we once had so close to my heart and I will always look back on the memories. While life takes us through our own path, I hope you know that regardless of where we end up, I will always be there for you. Maybe not physically, but emotionally, I will always be there for you.

Thank you for sticking by me, getting to know my life, showing me the most sincere support and unconditional love. I couldn't thank you enough for the countless amount of times that you have stuck by me when I needed you. I have no idea what I'd do without you sometimes... or all of the time. And I am so happy that I don't ever have to find out. I love you!
