A Thank You To My Best Friend
Kara Hickey

Heylo Keilyn,

I asked you maybe five minutes before I started writing this, what I should write about this week, and you jokingly said you. As you said never mind and actually starting thinking of topics for me to write about, I had already to started this.

Let me start off by saying how grateful I am for you. I remember it like it was just yesterday when we first met. We were going out with some of our friends, and we spoke briefly, and I didn't think we would end up being best friends. How wrong I was. It's funny because it seems like it has been a lifetime of friendship and not just ten short months. You have brought so much light into my life, and our friendship was a blessing in disguise.

When we met last semester, we started to really get to know each other. We discovered we had so much in common, and so many of the same values. I think that is something that made us be so close. Our ability to connect with so many different things makes our friendship so valuable.

I want to thank you specifically for being you. You have seen me at my lowest and highest points, and continue to be my friend. I want to thank you for treating me like family, and really getting to know me. It's funny how you don't find many people you truly connect with, but we do. Thank you for introducing me to people who I consider great friends, and for helping me find my way. Speaking of that, thank you for helping me find my way back to God. You have never forced any of your beliefs on me, but with your influence, I am on my way to finding myself within God. I truly appreciate how you have helped lead me back to him, and being a part of this wonderful journey. I think I would still be questioning my place in life if I didn't have you.

Thank you for being so understanding, and comforting. You are someone I know I can rely on, and that is something you do not find in many people. You are truly one of the most beautiful people I know, inside and out. I can not say this enough, but there are not many people like you in the world, and I am so lucky that I get to have an amazing person like you in my world.

God put you in my life for a reason, and now we can go through our journey together. Thank you for being my best friend, you are truly a treasure in my life. I will never be able to put into words how much you mean to me Keilyn, but for now, I hope this gives you some form of an idea. I can not wait to see what lies ahead for us in the future, but I can definitely say that I'm glad my future will be with you.

I love you more than words can express,

Kara

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
