I have watched us grow up together and I could not be happier about the people we have become, especially you. I have seen us in tragedy and happiness together at times but nothing makes it better than having a friend I can openly share anything with, but right now I need you to know something.
The year your mom passed you changed, and I honestly did not know how to handle it. You had lost someone I could not bare or imagine losing, and it is something I would not wish on anyone. You are without a doubt one of the strongest people I have ever met and a role model during a lot of times. It is difficult in certain moments because I often find myself not knowing what to do. Whether to cry with you, hug and hold you, or let you have your space. I see it sometimes when you smile and say, “It’s Okay”, when I know inside you aren’t. You need to know it is okay to cry and let it out sometimes. You will never hear me say, “I understand” or “I feel your pain.” In all honesty, I don’t and I probably never will. I just want you to know I am here for you 24-7-365 whether you like it or not. Now, besides the emotional aspects of this letter I wanted to tell you a few things you have been pretty boss at.
1. You handled high school like a boss. You finished with the status of Cum Laude, and at graduation you walked across the stage in heels like a bad*ss.
2. I know we have only been in college together for only a short time but you have done super. I know you were emotional the first week but whether you know it or not you are doing great, and each day is getting better and better for you!
3. I definitely cannot wait to see how far your tattooing career takes you!
4. Have I mentioned you have done a great job keeping me in check and always remind me of where I come from?
That was just to name a few things. The biggest and greatest accomplishment you definitely need to know and most of all is that your mother is super proud of you. You could have done a million other things but you chose to make a life for yourself and better your own future that no one can take away from you. I want you to know I love you beyond measure or capability. I absolutely cannot wait to see what the future holds for our friendship.
