I can’t thank you enough.
You made me a better person than I was yesterday. You made me a person who believes in my dreams. You reminded me that my dreams would come true when I didn’t believe in myself. You made me trust myself to be who I am. You encouraged me to be my authentic self.
You want the best for me. When I was heartbroken, you were by my side like the stars hang by the moon at night. We shine together.
The time when I talked about the same problem and person over and over again, you let me ramble over and over again until your ears were raw from the words that came from my mouth. I was talking too much. Yet, you let me talk again and again because you knew that it would calm me down. You patiently listened to me because you knew what I needed the most at that time. You know I needed a friend who could listen.
I can’t imagine my life without you. I might not be who I am now without you. You taught me that kindness has no boundaries, that trust is a priority, and that being present in a time of need is absolute.
When I called you that night, while crying my eyes out, you were there for me. When I needed someone to stay for a night because of I was too afraid to be alone, you were there. You don’t even let me walk alone at night, you insist that I walk with you. Even when I refuse, you beg me to at least take your scissors. You care about me.
I could never see you get hurt. I would never let anyone hurt you. If they hurt you, they hurt me.
I sometimes think, “God, how grateful I am to have you in my life.” You mean more to me than anything you do. You are the best of the best. It took only you, one person, to realize that I could erase all the feelings of loneliness, and sadness. You erased those feelings of betrayal from my fake friends. You are my one true friend.
I feel like you know me more than I know myself.
You are not a fake friend who only comes around when they need something from you. When I hear you talk about me, I hear you tell others how smart and kind I am. Even though I thought I was just a piece of shit. You uplifted me, you empowered me.
You make me feel beautiful. You are different. You are far from the fake friends I had who would always talk and not listen, who came around only when they needed something and spread horrible rumors about me.
I remember when we had a fight, you quickly asked for forgiveness without a second thought. I made you cry and for that, I am sorry. You make this friendship a priority, and I will do the same too. I will make you a priority in my life. You bring me happiness and I want to return that happiness in the way that you deserve. You radiate that shining light through the darkness. You are my sunshine. I hope that our friendship lasts forever.
Best friend, I love you. You are a blessing in my life.
