Dear Unexpected Friend,

I was not planning to meet you. Hence the word "unexpected", but yet that fateful day, our lives crossed paths.

The funny thing is, I wasn't even planning on talking to you. I was so nervous because it was our first day of work and we were both new to the job. But yet, I decided to put my big girl pants on and say hi and try to start up a conversation. And thank God I did because from that moment on we were insepteratble.

We had so much in common but yet we were so different. You taught me many things and inspired me to look at the world in a different way. You taught me how to look at life from your point of view. And I will forever be thankful for that.

Thank you for always encouraging me and always picking me up when I'm down. You never failed to make me laugh or to do stupid things with me. You taught me how to stand up for myself and how to be a little bit more tough, to not get walked on.

Thank you for always accepting me for who I am. Thank you for listening to my pointless rants and deep thoughts that probably make no sense. Thank you for never once judging me. Thank you for never telling me once what to do. You always respected my own decisions and never once questioned them which quite honestly meant the most to me.

I will always cherish the late summer nights spent just goofing around and all the adventures we seemed to go on in our hometown. How you could literally make me pee my pants laughing and turn any situation into a fun one.

Since the summer came to the end and our days of us seeing each other every day became fewer and fewer, a sadness grew inside me. I've always based my life around the notion that the same things never happen twice. Especially the good things. You can never recreate the perfect moment or great things.That's simply just the way life goes. Every moment, friendship and experience and the feelings they produce are one of a kind.

And since our days were limited, and our friendship had blossomed in such a short period of time, i truly thought that our friendship would fade away.

But.. I was wrong.

If anything, it actually became stronger. As if the distance actually helped. It was brilliant. That's when I knew that this friendship wasn't on a time table, it was real and had no expiration date.

I truly consider you one of my best friends. And to just imagine if I never would have said hi to you that one day, who knows, maybe we wouldn't haven't been friends? Maybe we've never would have spoken.

I'm extremely grateful for you and the impact you've made in my life. Thank you, Thank you for being my unexpected friend.
