To The Person Who Changed My Life For The Better
Brooke Cagle

People come and go in our lives all the time. Some make a huge impact, while others just pass by. Some care about your well-being and want to be the people or person who's always there for you, while you create your own path and make your way through this crazy world. They're there to pick you up when you fall, congratulate you on an achievement, a shoulder to cry on, and will stay by your side even when you make some big mistakes. They know that you have your faults and your weaknesses and are trying your best to work on those faults in order to better both your lives, but they also know that neither of you could imagine your lives without each other.

Passing through lI you never knew that one day I would meet someone so incredible. I lived day by day surrounded by friends and family, but what I didn't know was that I was missing out on so much without you in my life. The bursts of laughter, the vast amount of happiness that your bring to me each and every day, the way you lift my spirits and accept me for who I am is only part of the reason for why I will be eternally grateful that I met you. The confidence you have in me and the potential that you see in me for greatness is something that has affected me since day one. The way in which you care so much and so deep is unlike anyone else I've met. You've taught me how to love so deeply and truly open myself up to someone else.

There comes a time when we all wish for those days in our lives where we will come across an individual who completes our lives when they're not full yet. A best friend, a teammate, a significant other, these are all people with whom we can say has impacted our life in some sort of way. Every relationship in the world no matter who the people are, has its highs and lows. One day you might see rainbows and butterflies as you couldn't be happier and other days there might be storm clouds overhead looking down on you. What matters is how we let those days affect us. Do we just smile and cheer over the sunshine that fills our relationship and throw all the downfalls aside? Or, when those stormy days arrive do we reflect back on ourselves and realize that it will take time to heal from and that the thunderstorm will end eventually. Whether it's a friendship, romantic relationship or something in between, it's not always about the sunshine and butterflies. It's about staying by each other's side through the really tough times, and knowing that even though there may be storm clouds that you caused, there will be a light at the end of the tunnel. Nothing is concrete and bulletproof, humans aren't perfect, and sometimes their faults can get in the way, but as long as you stick together you will only be stronger.
