Sometimes, I wonder how you manage to handle everything that life has thrown at you. From your internal struggles to your relationship woes, I think that you are truly a saint. You have kept a smile on your face and kept your positive attitude no matter what, and I am inspired by your strength.

I know that it's not always easy for you. I know that sometimes you take your time and distance yourself because you don't want to bother anyone or because you think that you will be fine if you handle it alone... but that's not the case.

No matter what I will always be a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, someone you can vent too. You always have someone in your corner. No matter what. You're never as alone as you think you are.

You are truly inspiring.

You push your own limits and constantly work at making yourself better.

You changed my life and you might not even realize it.

You made me take my own health seriously. Physically and mentally.

You have taught me to let go of things that weren't good for me.

You have picked me up when I was at my lowest. I just hope that someday you will let me be that person for you, if I haven't started already.

You amaze me. Your life won't always be easy. It won't always be fair. Nothing will seem like it will be constant but that's what I am here for. I am your constant. I love you for everything you are. And I hope that I can help you find what you're looking for and be the person who helps you with everything you aren't.

You're a wonderful best friend. I hope someday I am able to give back half of what you have given me.

I love you

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.
