To My Best Friend

I wish there could be more people like you in this world. Your soul is the purest I have met, and I can't help but thank the universe for letting me meet and know you. We both have seen and experienced the consequences of offering our best selves to the world, but you, you taught me life's greatest lesson - resilience. There had been times I wanted to drag myself back to my old and abandoned zone because there is just too much to take in, but your presence in my life is what makes me bounce back every single time. Yes, I am a renewed person each day because you believed in me. And thank you, for giving me the reason to always find purpose and meaning in every downfall.

The past four years were a roller coaster ride. And every time it's on the peak I can't help but appreciate what this story is all about. From there I can see myself in my most vulnerable state, me being raw and real, all my fears laid out freely for you to see. But you are such an amazing person because you shouted the word acceptance in the air and still enjoyed the ride nonetheless.

 I remember the time when you told me how we've tried and hurt ourselves enough to know how to wait for what's best for us. I want you to know that I've been believing and holding on to that ever since. I spent so many years trying to convince myself that I don't deserve what I chased and lost. Somehow, the idea of forgiveness and recovery all made sense to me when I started to see life in a different perspective. Thanks to you, for making it a lot easier.

There must be a reason why we sat near to each other on that electricity class we knew nothing about. (Haha) I am and will always be delighted to have you in my side as I journey through. Thank you for staying in my life, and thank you for welcoming me into yours.
