Dear Best Friend,

I will not put your name in this letter because you know who you are. I want you to know that after all of the years that I have known you, you will always be my best friend. Even when I have not been there as much recently, I promise that I will never leave your side when you need me most. I promise you that, though it might be days or even a week before we speak, if something happens just know that I will be there every step of the way that you need me. Even if that means you just want to tell me something that is awesome or awful. I promise you that I will always be there.

I will always defend you. Even if I might ever be mad at you, I respect you too much to let someone else disrespect you even if we are in a disagreement. I mean that has never happened before because you are always a damn good friend. I will even defend you from yourself because sometimes we let things get a little too crazy and I like having you around. Even when you think that the ex-boyfriend or current crush is worth all of that heartache that you were put through, I will be there to tell you to screw that jerk and be fabulous instead. I will be as blunt as humanly possible and probably use fouler language but it will happen because I gotchu.

I promise that I will try my best to make you laugh. I am stupid and goofy enough so you know that I will try to make your life happy even when I am not feeling up for it. I believe that everyone should be happy and that includes my best friend. You are one of the most important people in my life and I want to make sure you enjoy life as much as you can. that is my promise to you.

I also promise that we will always have adventures. What is the point of not having fun in life and not taking certain risks? I mean, I get pretty chicken when I want to be but I am always up for adventures with you.

There is so much more that I could say but the most important thing for you to know is that I love you. That we will have many more adventures together. That you will always be important in my life even when you think that no one cares about you. I will always be there for you through thick and thin. Know that you are my best friend for life.

Love,

Your Best Friend.

Spending five, 10 or even more weeks in the outdoors leading elementary to high school aged kids for a week at a time is unique, to say the least.

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right?
