To the best friend I used to have,

We grew up together. We spent every minute together for years. We told each other everything, the good, the bad and the ugly. We had a bond that is not easily replaced. As we grew older, we grew apart and we each found a different path. But for those few years that I was able to call you my best friend is something I will always be thankful for.

I have figured out throughout the years that God has his own way of doing things within our lives. Whether we want it or not, it always happens in the way that he has planned. As we grew older, God made our plans differently. To be honest, I was not pleased with the plan He had made at first. I didn’t understand that our lives were changing to suit us as our future self.

So there is something I want to say--as much as I would love to grow with you as a person I am glad to see who you have become. I am glad to see that you have found the friends that help you along the path you are on. Follow the plan God has given you for it was made just for you. Losing a friend is always hard, but at the end of the road it is a rewarding sight to see an old friend living there life in God.

I hate our friendship ended so quickly, but I am excited to see where life takes you. I will always consider you one of the greatest friends I had. So with that said I leave you with this quote, “Growing apart doesn’t change the fact that for a long time we grew side by side; our roots will always be tangled.”

Sincerely,

Your Old Friend
