Dear Beautiful,

I hope your semester has been going fine. You are almost graduating and that is scary, let's face it, you’re probably terrified. But it is going to be fine. Ed Helms said, “Don’t be afraid of fear. Because it sharpens you, it challenges you, it makes you stronger; and when you run away from fear, you also run away from the opportunity to be your best possible self.”

I love this quote because it encourages me to keep going even after everything fails. Even when I do not feel like walking, it tells me that it is OK to crawl, it is OK to be afraid of the future, it is OK to not have as some may say “my stuff together.” The only issue is that it is not OK for you to give up. It is not OK to let other people tell you how to live your life. As you graduate, I hope that you keep this in mind.

I love that you are always here for me. Your kindness is greatly appreciated. I love that you always notice whenever something is wrong with me, and you try to make me feel better by buying me chocolates and making me smile. THANK YOU so much. You have made my college life so much better and I thank God for putting you in my life. Meeting you has been one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I am going to miss our late night Walmart runs and all the moments we shared from singing and dancing in Walmart to hanging out with you during the summer. Life around here is going to be quite boring without you, but that is okay because I know wherever you are, you will be putting smiles on people’s faces and making their lives better.

I hope that you achieve all your dreams and that you succeed at everything you plan to do. I hope you have a life full of blessings and adventures because you deserve it. No matter what happens in the future, I want you to know that you will always be in my thoughts and that you have a special place in my heart. I love you and I will miss you more than you can ever imagine.

Love,

Your buddy.
