To Whom This May Concern,

Thank you. Thank you for constantly maintaining friendship near or far, long or short. I always know when we see one another after an extended period of time it's like picking up where we left off, with no hard feelings or resentment towards one another. Life can get crazy, both you and I know that.

Thank you. Thank you for always having my back in times of need and endlessly celebrating in times of joy, I know that when you act in either of these ways it's from the heart and never from a place of jealousy or spite. We may not connect with every detail anymore, but we always have a vague idea of what's going on and how everything is going in each others' lives. I will always remember the details you do tell me, like the boy you're talking to, the job you've decided to quit, the upcoming gig you have, or how you're liking your new job.

Thank you. Thank you for doing minute activities with me or running errands on busy days, you truly understand that it's not what we do, it's who we do it with, that makes it fun. There's no one else I'd like to return recycling with, run around my yard searching for the cats, grab mid-day lunch break food with, or go to the car wash. Listening to music in the car and dancing to the old songs we used to laugh at in the back of the McDonald's parking lot remind me that there's no friend quite like you.

Thank you. Thank you for always reaching out for time to spend together and never taking it to heart when plans end up falling through. Thank you for splitting the bill down the middle instead of needing to itemize everything, saving us both time and hassle. Thank you for always understanding, being supportive, and accepting the way the cookie crumbles every time it decides to crumble.

Thank you. Thank you for always having the best conversations. Talking about the world, about life, catching up on the tidbits of life that we've missed over the course of our separation from one another. Playing Pokemon GO, talking about the latest Instagram drama, laughing about old times and creating new moments to laugh about in the future. I want to hear about your latest interests, have you taken up reading more? Are you listening to a new band? Are you in a new band? So many questions.

Thank you. There's no friend quite like the one you can have a low maintenance relationship with. On days when I think we may have lost touch I realize that it's impossible. A week, a month, a year down the road, I know you'll be right by my side and we will have a relationship for a lifetime to come.
