Day 28 — Someone that changed your life

Dear Best Friend,

You’ve made such an impact on my life. I mean a huge impact. I wouldn’t be who I am today without you.

You are the one who told me to keep smiling even when things were getting tough, you were the one to remind me that things get better, you were the one that gave me advice that when I had no idea what to do, you were the one that held my hand and told me to stay strong.

You have always been there no matter what.

We don’t see each other very often. Every two years or so. And yet, we manage not only to stay in contact, but I still turn to you for everything and you’re the one I tell my problems to.

We will have known each other 7 years at the start of 2013. Pretty amazing when I think about it. 

Telling you I was moving was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. I remember walking around our school field as I told you what was happening. You didn’t cry, or show any sign of emotion. I could tell you were shocked though.

To this day, you still blame yourself for making my last day “bad”. I wish you’d listen to me and trust when I say that that day was amazing, even if I had to say goodbye. Me, you and two of our other friends were supposed to be singing. You thought I didn’t want to sing cause I might be crying so you told the teacher we weren’t going to be singing. I got to school that day and you told me. I couldn’t believe it. You started crying when I told you that I wanted to do it.

I remember seeing you for the last time. I remember waving goodbye to you as you walked around the corner. I cried myself to sleep that night.

Whenever I get to see you, I treasure those moments so much. We spend our time doing things that we both enjoy.

Sometimes we just sit and talk for hours, about nothing sometimes. I wish it could always be like this. I wish as best friends, we could do this all the time.

You’ve changed my life just by being here. I wouldn’t be where I am today without you. I don’t know where I would be without you.

Words cannot explain how thankful I am for everything you’ve ever done. 

I love you so much best friend!

Lots of love and hugs, your best friend in the whole world, Becky xoxoxo
