To my best friend,

There are a lot of things that sometimes can simply go unnoticed or unacknowledged, one of them being is my love and appreciation for you. Though most days I spend time sending you tweets via direct message on twitter, snapchatting you an unhealthy amount to keep our 400 and... something day streak alive and "ASJHDAHJSAHSA" you via text, I know there are many days that go by without me acknowledging just how essential you are to my growth as an individual and overall essential element of my life.

First and foremost let us acknowledge something that will never change; you are my person and always will be. No matter what petty fight may surface or how many days we go without insulting each other, you will always be my second half. Though I cannot sometimes verbalize my admiration of you, what I can do it write about - and what other way than making a list? Because there are so many things I love about you, I figured I could make it short and sweet with just 5 of the best things.

1. Our duets

Although now it's sometimes more of a competition, belting "Love on Top" by Beyonce in the car on the way to Sedona was most definitely one of my top favorite things about you. Being able to harmonize and make the most alluring sounds i've ever heard with my bestie has to go down in the "hall of favs" as i'd call it.

2. Sitting in silence

There are very few things that I appreciate more than my own solitude, but sometimes all I need to lift my spirits is sitting in your room in silence and just doing whatever task is at hand. Plus, it isn't awkward, because we both appreciate each other's company without needing any constant communication.

3. Your laugh

The most contagious thing in this world (probably even more than chicken pox or something) is your laugh. Seriously, I can't not laugh whenever I hear that obnoxious (yet oddly satisfying) laugh of yours.

4. Your honesty

Though it isn't always what I want to hear, you are always honest and upfront with me, which is sometimes what is necessary when I'm making irrational decisions.

5. Your support

Through all of my craziest endeavors, relationships, milestones in my life and then some, you have always been on the sidelines cheering me on, running alongside with me, or lifting me up when I am down. You have never left me alone in the dark and have always been the one to emit the brightest of lights in my life.

Everyone, or most of us, may be lucky to come across a best friend during their lifetime, but I was one of the few to come across that and so much more. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank God for you, and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't wish I could single handedly give you the world. You will always be my person, and I hope I can be yours too.
