Dear Best Friend,

I just want to start off by saying that you are the best thing that ever happened to me. Gosh I know that sounds cheesy and what not but truly, though. You have shown me kindness, love, and the ability to care, which is something I would have never been able to do on my own.

So, thank you.

Thank you for being an amazing person, even though sometimes you disagree with me whenever I say that, but no really, you are an amazing person. You radiate happiness wherever you go and being able to be your friend has shown me that there is pureness out there in the world. I’ve just been looking in all the wrong places.

After coming to you about all my boy problems and my problems in general, I’m convinced you’re one of my best friends and I would die for you. That sounds so serious, but you really have changed my life and you've shaped me into the person that I am today, so again, thank you so, so much. I will never take the things I have now for granted.

Thank you for showing me what it means to connect with God and make sure I know the things that he has done for me. Even though we may be two different people, I feel like we are the same person at heart. I'm sorry I'm a mess, but despite that, you still accept me the way I am and I’m so grateful for that. I’ve said thank you like three times already, but here’s another one. THANK YOU.

You made me realize that everything I wanted/want in life is all materialistic things and that true friendship is something you can’t pay for - it’s priceless. Your friendship is priceless to me. You taught me that instead of looking to the future, I need to live in the moment.

Starting college has made me also realize that without seeing you every day like I used to in AP Lit, I've felt emptier and broken inside. Please come to college with me, even if you don't want to.

Anyway, I’m done being sappy. I feel like I’m going to cry. I can’t wait to see you soon. I love you so much.

With Love,

Me
