To the Friend Who Hasn't Heard "Thank You" Enough,
You are the one who always has a smile on their face, the one who always has their arms wide open when someone seeks comfort, the one who is willing to move mountains for the people they care about. You are bright and compassionate—a quality that is desired by many but attained by only a few. Everyone around you is naturally drawn to your kind spirit. So many people rely on you to get them through whatever challenges they may be facing.
As much as we appreciate all you do, we somehow seem to get caught up in our own issues and don't tell you what you mean to us. And even if we do remember to say thank you after a heart to heart, a laugh or a hug, it's really not enough.
So, thank you for...
Accepting me as I am.
No matter how much my mascara runs or how out of perspective my opinion is, you never blame me. Thank you for letting me share my twisted point of view free of criticism and judgement.
Being available 24/7.
Whether it's 1:00 a.m. on a Thursday night or 6:00 a.m. on a Sunday morning, you're always there. It still amazes me how many texts you've sent me saying "I'll be right over". Thanks for being close, no matter how far apart we physically are.
Making me laugh.
Your bright spirit and smile light up a room instantly, which I am forever grateful for. You know how to bring humor into any situation and make the toughest times a little more bearable. So, thank you for all of the uncontrollable belly laughs.
Speaking the truth.
All of my questionable decisions have been completely shut down because of you. Thank you for looking out for me and telling it like it is.
Being a good listener.
Sometimes I wonder how you put up with me. I can go on for hours complaining about everything under the sun, while you sit there patiently and nodding along. Thanks for hearing me out for the big things, and being so patient when I ramble on about the little things.
Loving me, always.
People worry when they don't see the two of us together. We are practically inseperable, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Thousands of amazing, funny, and even horrific memories come to mind when I think of you. So thank you for being the most amazing friend, supporting me through it all, laughing through life with me, and loving me unconditionally.
