I can go months without seeing you, and weeks without talking to you, but that does not mean that I don't love and appreciate you. If anything, I appreciate you for being one of the most loyal, thoughtful, and honest people I know. You are my forever friend and I can't explain how much I appreciate you and all that you do for me.

I know if I ever need anything, you will be there in an instant, and hopefully you know that I would do the same for you. You will always be a part of life's big moments, even if it is only in spirit; I hope that I will always be a part of your big moments too. 21 years of friendship counts for something, and I say that something is a bond and a sisterhood that will never be broken.

We have taken separate paths in life, but have always kept a watchful eye on what and how the other is doing. We can see each other twice a year and in those moments, we still giggle and enjoy the time we have together like we did when we were toddlers in the sandbox. The memories we have created and continue to create are some of the most cherished because they are with you.

So here is a thank you, to everyone's forever friend. The friend that is there for you no matter what, the friend who only wants the best for you, even if that means less time with each other. I love you so much, and my life would not be the same had you not been there from the beginning. Thank you for being my rock, my cheerleader, my forever friend.
