There is always that friend that deep down, you know always has the right answer. The friend that can steer you in the right direction. The friend that can build up the courage to move past things that you would otherwise stew over for days. The friend that makes you wish you had their temper.
(What a handsome headshot, am I right ladies?)
I have a friend like that. A best friend, actually. I can always count on him to give me valuable advice. I don't mean the generic advice that could be applied to anything. I mean the type of advice that you know was well-thought out and completely sincere to not only your feelings, but the situation.
My best friend and I can get into a fight, one that is usually caused by me (nothing special there), and instantly be ready to forgive and forget. It's not the kind of forgive and forget where the other person just pushes it out of their head and one day explodes from all the things they had originally disregarded. No. It's the kind of thing that after we've talked the problem through thoroughly, apologies have been made from both parties (even if it was only one person who caused the problem), and your best friend says, "I accept your apology and I am ready to move past this." This is a quality that's hard to find.
I can text or call my best friend, regardless of what time it is, and ask for advice. My best friend knows me so well that he knows that although I am asking for advice, I know what I should do and that I just wanted a second opinion.
If I'm sad, or my day was awful, I can always count on a smile from him. There is always a joke, a funny face, or simply talking about anything, that I can count on my best friend for. He's my shoulder to cry on, both when I am sad, or when he makes me laugh so hard that I start crying.
I admire my best friend for being so incredibly strong. No matter what situation, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.
Sometimes, I don't think I deserve this light in my life, the person who knows all the right things, but I sure am thankful to have him.
I love my best friend through and through. I may be crazy, and I may not always make the greatest decisions, yet my best friend has never left my side. There has never been an instance of my best friend giving up on me, only him trying to make me happy, or patch up what I have broken in my life.
I believe that I am the luckiest girl on this planet to have a person like this in my life. That is something I will never let go...
