There's a moment in your life where you become aware of the fact that you found your soul mate. But I’m not talking about the person you'll spend your whole life with. I’m talking about the awkward person you met on the bus in 6th grade on your first day of school. So, to that awkward person, my soul friend:
Thanks for being you and for letting me be me.
Thanks for making let my guard down.
Thanks for sharing the best, most gut-wrenching laughs with me.
Thanks for listening to my sad stories and telling me it's OK.
Thanks for telling me to "suck it up" when I'm overreacting.
Thanks for understanding my anxiety, and never judging me for it.
Thanks for yelling at me when I deserve it and loving me even more.
Thanks for being the only person I ever want to share my secrets with.
Thanks for being a beautiful person.
Thanks for making the world a better place.
Thanks for the laughs and the cries.
Thanks for being my rock.
Thanks for knowing my favorite food, and thanks for knowing what I want to drink before I do.
Thanks for knowing all my favorites, and all my pet peeves.
Thanks for knowing ME.
Thanks for not ignoring me on the bus 11 years ago, and thanks for not ignoring my phone call to you while writing this. Thanks for being my best friend and my person. Thanks for giving me these reasons, and a million more, to be thankful for.
Forever and Always,
Your Best Friend
