They say that you only truly realize who your real friends are when times get tough. Our twenties can be a roller coaster full of emotions. Whether it’s love trouble, trying to get through school, figuring out what to do with life or just generally becoming a full-grown adult, if it weren’t for your friends how would we even make it through?
Never ending text threats, hours on FaceTime and of course, those countless times of going over to your friend’s house with a tub of ice cream and a bottle of wine are what can make up some great friendships. That is not to say that there aren’t friendships in which you don’t talk as regularly but you still know that these people will have your back no matter what.
Regardless of what your friendship looks like, knowing that you have those special people in your life will make all the difference. Knowing that you can rely on them when times get tricky is an amazing feeling.
Friends like this are not to be taken for granted and every once in a while, you should take the time to properly thank them. Especially, when they once again dealt with your sorry ass after you had another breakdown.
I feel that it's time to tell my friends something. So here it goes. THANK YOU!
Thank you for being there through it all. You being my friend has only enriched my life and made it so much more worthwhile. No amount of distance between us has stopped us from being friends and whenever we reconnect again, it seems as if no time has passed at all. I value you so much, not as just a friend but also for the person that you are. Your amazing character, your inner beauty, your smarts, and wits make you so truly special.
You have this incredible ability to light up a room whenever you walk in. I love how we can spend hours doing absolutely nothing and the silence between us is never awkward.
At the same time, there is nothing quite like a good night out with you, where we end up philosophizing about God knows what on our walk home in the early morning hours. I am so thankful for you and all that you do for me. Hopefully, you know that I am always there for you and will have your back no questions asked.
The world is a better place because of you!
