Dear Best Friends,

Yes, plural, meaning more than one. Where would I be without you? But Seriously.

I am lucky enough to have more than one best friend. Both of you equally unique, hilarious, fun, and lovely in your own way. I am here to thank you, because, without you, I would be nothing, and I truly mean that. You girls have saved me, in more ways than one, and I could never thank you enough for that.

There is something special about what we have, and yes, I am sure everyone says this about their best friends. I believe this is true for everyone and their best friends because there is something special about the fact that people are placed in our lives just to bring joy, laughter, and love to it. And you both have given me more love, laughter, and utter joy than you could ever imagine.

I never thought in a million years I would be halfway across the country from you two, but alas here I am and there you are. I know that no matter what, nothing will ever come between the special bond we have formed. You two have some of the most beautiful souls I have ever known. I get to call you both my best friends, and I know that I am truly blessed because of this.

I don’t know where I would be without you. I have lost count of the times I have called you girls crying and you have cheered me up and somehow I end up laughing as I get off the phone. When I felt alone, you two were always there to hold my hand and dry my tears, even from across the country. More importantly than that, you two are my best memories. You are my greatest joy and my most genuine laughter…. You are my favorite smiles, cuddles, and hugs.

True joy was long car rides chasing the sunset with you two. True joy was laying in my bed giggling wondering why in the world we were so lucky to have each other. True joy was going to concerts and dancing the night away next to you. And true joy was singing karaoke on a cold December night, creating special moments that we will never in a million years forget.

True joy is our friendship.

We are now thousands of miles away from each other. We have created new memories, failed a few tests, and made a few more best friends, and I couldn’t be happier for us. I couldn’t be happier because though all this change is occurring so quickly, we are still best friends and always will be. This proved to me that our bond is far too strong to let a few miles come between it.

I know you guys are taking good care of each other. I wish I could be there to cuddle and tickle your back, make sure no one gets lost, and annoy you with my tendency to forget things and be late to just about everything. I wish with my whole heart to have a few more days with you guys chasing the sun and listening to music while looking at the stars. But hey, isn’t that what breaks are for?

I miss you two every day. Even if we don’t talk constantly, know that not a day goes by where I don’t wish you both were experiencing this whole college thing with me. Without you, I would be completely and utterly lost (and I am only okay with that if you two are by my side).

Thank you for existing, I love you forever and always.
