To my built-in best friend,

"Our siblings. They resemble us just enough to make all their differences confusing, and no matter what we choose to make of this, we are cast about them our whole lives long."

Thank you for always believing me in when I had no faith in myself. From the time you came into this world, you put me in a position to become a better version of myself. From forcing you to tag along as a sidekick to all of my shenanigans to watching you walk across the stage, you've shown me the true definition of friendship and love. No matter how tough times may be, you have shown me that you will never waiver.

Thank you for being you above all else. Though you are not the most talkative, you always know how to bring light into any room you enter. The moment you allowed me to hide you in a box full of teddy bears, I knew that you would take part in all of my fun, yet stupid decisions. The memories we have made are the ones that I treasure every day. You are me and I am you. I will always be thankful that God blessed me with a wonderful being like yourself. Though you may be younger, you have taught me more than you could ever know. From your kind soul to your exceptional work ethic, you managed to bring joy in some of my darkest moments.

To my kind-hearted, loving, and wonderful little brother,

Thank you for your unwavering loyalty and all the wonderful years of friendship. I will always be proud of the man you have become and will continue to be with you no matter what life brings us.

Love always,

Your Little Big Sister

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
