This One's for You

Where do I begin? you have been my best friend since junior year of high school and I couldn't have been more thankful to meet you at such a time. You encourage me, reassure me, and inspire me as a whole. You have impacted my life so much and now I cannot imagine life without you let alone picture how I was managing it before you were in my life. Our friendship is more than just friends or even best friends. You are like my sister, my right hand woman. You make laugh even at moments when I don't want to. You have such a great personality that hope no one ever takes from you. You are stronger than you will ever know and I know sometimes you struggle with believing that. your heart is kind, your soul is gold.


I always wonder how I got so lucky to have such a wonderful friend in my life such as yourself. I'd rather have a friend like you than a bunch of others who don't compare. Let's be honest to we both know I don't like people, but who wouldn't like you. Since I've known you for years I have seen our friendship blossom into a sisterhood. We are so close I know there were times where we did not speak which broke both of us apart, It was horrible because nothing could fill the empty void I was feeling, but it was both of our faults. What I do love is that when we saw each other again we clicked back like nothing every happened. Those are the kinds of friends you need in your life. I need a friend like you because I can be myself when I'm around you with no judgments.


Whether we go shopping, stay in and watch movies all day, making fools of ourselves in the car, going to Mighty Taco at 1am, or call each other at 3am calling each other crying. You by far the best person I could ever rely on for support in anything I do. Whenever we are with each other it's always a good time. We always have so much fun together and I wouldn't change it for the world. I also have realized that throughout five years of friendship we have not fought once or had any arguments occur. I know were honest with each other and know what's best for each other and if that isn't close to sisterly love then I don't know what is.


Overall what I'm trying to say is thank you. Thank you for being my best friend and loving me unconditionally as the sister you never had. Thank you for all the laughs, advice, tears of joy, and most importantly helping me find myself. Sometimes I feel like you know me better than I know myself. I say that in the best regards because you have made me who I am today with you by my side, to stand my ground, and always stick up for myself. Thank you for loving me when I couldn't love myself and showing the true beauty I have in myself, as well as I show you yours because you're beautiful inside and out.


I have come across a lot of people in my life and one of the best by far is you. So this one's for you. You have impacted my life greatly and I hope I impact yours as well. I know matter what I go through in life I'll have you there with me. No one can break our friendship, no one can stop us from being friends ever. You fulfill a special place in my heart that no one else can. You are my best friend, my sister, my support system. You are someone I know I can trust, lean on, and cherish as times go on in our lives and in our friendship. You're not just a friend, you are my sister. It's what you call a fictive kin. You don't need to be related in order to be family. That's what you are to me.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
