Short One

I must be a very lucky person to be blessed with the friends that I have. There is one girl (one of the 3 people in the entire universe who actually read this blog) that has been my friend for the past 15 years. And I am blessed to have her in my life. From the moment I transferred into her school, she made me feel welcome. She was the only one who really did.

This wonderful person helped me during some of the toughest times of my life to date. She was there when my parents split up, she gave me her shoulder when I needed to cry, she lent me her uniform when my family had no money and we needed to make one (see previous posts for full details) and above all she was genuine. Always has been and always will. For all of these things and more I am grateful. I mean this girl, who stands a little over 5 feet tall, is in my corner no matter what happens. Just take a look at the comment she posted on my last entry (Assholes, Leatherpants, and the World's Largest Birthday Cake.) I read that and laughed out loud, picturing her standing in the middle of a bar, irate, ready to rip someones throat out just to protect and defend me. I must have been a saint in my last life, because I don't know what things I could have done in this life to deserve a friend like her.

The best part about this wonderful person is that no matter how far away we may be, however long it may have been since we last spoke, we are still close. Time and space won't change that.

Thanks Vik!!!
