Dear Ashleigh,
I'm writing this letter as a goodbye letter. I'm not happy that our friendship ended, but I cannot keep dwelling on the fact that we're not friends anymore because I have amazing people in my life right now. They need me present. I wanna make new memories, inside jokes, and go on new adventures with them. But, to do that, I need to let go. So this is me saying goodbye.
I will continue to love and care for you and ur family. You guys left a big impact on my life. You guys are the majority of my good memories. You guys brought me from such a dark place in my life and showed me that I was important and loved. When I first met you, I was going through a hard time. Gretchen was always in the hospital and I just had to go to multiple funerals. It was one of my lowest points in life. Then I met you and ur family. You guys brought me in and called me ur own. You have helped me in so many ways. You guys made me happy. You guys brought me closer to God.
I just want to thank you for everything. You made me laugh while crying. You made me laugh till I cried. You made me a happier person in a dark time. You gave me light in a dark time. For that I am greatful. You gave me someone to rant to and to spill the tea to. To talking about boys to deep conversations at night when we were supposed to be sleeping cuz we had church in the morning. You gave me someone to look up to. You were so positive and I was just a depressed wreck all the time. I wanna thank you for dealing with me as much as you did. You always seemed so annoyed when I was being depressing. You accepted me being extremely annoying. Like when I'd randomly come in ur room playing ur guitar. You excepted me acting like I'm mentally 5 years old and eating Mac and cheese all the time.
I can be a really sucky person sometimes, and I'm sorry bout that. Everyone can be like that. But things end. Everything eventually comes to an end. I just thought this never would. But, everything happens for a reason. Everything is a part of God's plan. And when you and everyone from Efree left, I grew closer to my family. I'm closer to them more than ever now. I am very thankful for that. Even when we argue about if the milk is expired or not. And, God has brought me close to some amazing people. I don't know what I'd do with out them, honestly. They brought me back. They support me in everything I do. They are always there. They make me feel so important. I love them a whole lot.
I really hope the best for you and ur family. Keep praising God. Keep telling people about Him. Keep changing other peoples life's. And keep those you love close. Don't ever think pushing people away is ever the answer, because it's not. Reach out to ur friends. You call them friends for a reason. They are in your life for a reason. Let them be there for you.

And, if we never get that close again, I'm forever changed by who you are, and what you meant to me then.
Sincerely, Allison.
