To my best friends,

You know who you are.

I just want to say thank you.

You have been there through everything.

Thank you for the endless laughs, thank you for the sleepless nights where we talk about anything and everything, thank you for turning everything into a positive situation, thank you for loving me even in my hardest times, thank you for never leaving my side, thank you for participating in everything with me even when you believe it to be a bad idea, thank you for your constant support, thank you for your love and appreciation, and most of all, thank you for being you.

You are the best thing that has ever happened in my life, and without you I have no idea where I would be.

Best friends will come and go, but I know I got lucky when I found you. God really was looking down on me when he introduced us. He knew we would be forever friends and that we would end up really needing each other in our times of need.

I want you to know how much I appreciate you because I know I may not say it as much as I should.

I hope one day I can show you the friendship you show me consistently each and every day.

You need to know that you are so loved. You are so important. You mean so much to not only me, but to everyone else you come in contact with as well. You are an inspiration for what friendship means and a role model for how people should treat the ones they love. You have such an amazing heart and you constantly give and give without expecting anything in return.

Although sometimes we may go periods of time without seeing each other, I want you to never forget that I am always there for you. I will never let you down. If you call me at 2 a.m. just needing someone to talk to, I'm your girl. I can promise you that whenever you feel down or alone, I will be there.

I want you to know that you deserve everything in this world. You deserve to be so insanely happy in everything you do. You deserve to be treated with the utmost respect. You deserve to be loved even on your worst days. You deserve a helping hand in everything you do.

Basically, I want you to know how thankful I am for our friendship. It means the world to me and always will. Thank you for being my person, and thank you for being my number one supporter in everything I do. You rock, so keep being yourself.

XOXO,

Maddie
