I know we are all used to seeing the good old "An open letter to ____", but what some people don't understand is how personal those letters are that we share with the public. Exposing your inner thoughts and having to put your name on it for the world to see is a brave thing. Letting the world know what is going on inside your brain, from the pain to the happiness, is bold. This is my letter to my ex-best friend.
You were my sister. My everything. My right hand, my go-to (pun intended.) We shared everything together. You were supposed to be the maid of honor at my wedding some day. I would drop anything I was doing and come to you in your time of need. I grew up with a younger brother that I adore dearly, but this bond with you was different.
I remember the start of our friendship and how it blossomed so fast. We clicked instantly and had so much in common. Even though we have went our separate ways I still think of you from time to time and how you are doing. I hope all is well in your life and I know you will do great things.
It still saddens me that we went from talking to each other everyday all day to silence. I miss your advice and our similar sense of humor. I know things are different now, but I can only wish you the best of the best. I hope you find happiness in life, get married to your dream man, and have a million bulldogs one day.
You were truly my sister that I never had. I cherish the moments we had together and we still have secrets that I will take to the grave. I thank you for being there for me. The past is in the past and there is no changing that now. I hope you are doing well and I will always have love for you.
Love,
Your Soul Sister
