To my best friend,
Nothing frustrates me more than to hear you talk down on yourself because I know better than anyone how much you deserve to be happy. There are so many reasons that you are one of my favorite people in this entire world, and as much as I wish that you could see yourself through my eyes for a day to understand how incredible I think you are, all I can do is tell you over and over again until someday, maybe, you'll finally believe me. So, for those days when you're feeling down, these are some things I want you to remember.
You are the most beautiful person I have ever met, inside and out.
There is a reason that everyone you meet can't help but like you, and if they don't, there's something wrong with them. You are the kindest and most genuine person I know and I couldn't be more proud to call you my best friend. You truly light up a room and have infectious energy to go along with your amiable personality. Never feel the need to change who you are or silence your voice for anyone because your authenticity is one of the most beautiful things about you.
Stop being so hard on yourself.
As much as you think that one bad grade or one mistake or one imperfection is literally the end of the world as we know it, I promise it isn't. Not everything is going to work out how you envision it and I know you find that hard to accept sometimes, but things will work out, and even if they don't, you're going to be okay. You are one of the smartest and most determined people I know and I'm positive that your future will be nothing short of amazing.
Don't settle for anything less than you deserve.
Even if someone does you wrong, you like to make excuses for them, because that's just the kind of person you are. While your kindness is something that I love about you, recognize your worth and know when to walk away from someone who isn't treating you in the way that you deserve, ESPECIALLY some stupid boy. It's not worth your time or worries, and who needs boys when you have a long distance relationship with me?
I love you unconditionally and will support you always.
We may not talk every single day or live in the same state right now, but that doesn't lessen how much love I have for you. You have impacted my life in so many positive ways and you inspire me each and every day. You always make it known how much you care about me, constantly checking up on me and supporting me no matter what and I hope that I reciprocate that support. Our friendship is something that I deeply value and I never want you to forget that I am always here for you, through the good, the bad, and everything in between, forever and always!
