Since I couldnтАЩt really do anything brilliantly special for your birthday this year, I thought IтАЩd perhaps continue with your birthday tradition! You taught me what it is to be loyal, and what it is like to share an exclusive friendship with one person. You taught me the beauty of having a friend who feels like family. And even though my life without you wouldтАЩve been like a pile of abandoned puppies, I know that I donтАЩt need to talk to you every day and that is the beauty of it. Sometimes I wonder how you know me so well. IтАЩve always had a handicap of expressing my feelings verbally (Funny, people think otherwise). But you know things even before I tell you. (Seriously, what kind of sorcery is that?) You know when I am upset. You also know when I just need someone to sit with me to share the silence if I donтАЩt want to talk, or when IтАЩm just being a stubborn ass. Somehow, you know. But you never give me the luxury of being in denial or get fed lies. It is a type of quality that makes you irreplaceable and unique. Out of all the words to describe you, I think the word that is most accurate is kind. And no wonder being friends with you these past 8 years has made me someone IтАЩm proud to be. YouтАЩre so many more adjectives (noble, generous, passionate, helpful and implausibly caring), but your kindness is unrelenting and IтАЩm certain it will bring all the awesomosity in the world that you deserve. Words are insufficient, but you need to know how amazingly awesome you are, so theyтАЩre going to have to do for now, anyway. I promise to always be here, somewhere in the background to remind you every day, lest you ever doubt it. I promise to be there to see you become stronger as you move past hurdles, tumbling and falling on occasions. I promise to be there to be your personal cheerleader and applaud with every ounce of my being when you win all the battles. Happy Birthday, birthday girl! Love, always тЭдя╕П https://www.instagram.com/p/B_-jiTsAZkS/?igshid=1mglrze0r8ayw
