A letter to my best friend
I wrote this letter about a month ago and have been debating whether or not to post it. I wrote for fear that I would not get to see my best friend before she left this world. Last Tuesday she asked me over to say our final goodbyes. I had the opportunity to give her some semblance of normality again and I know that's what she needed. Now its just a waiting game, I haven't received any news as of late but I know she's still holding on. When I wrote this letter I was so afraid I'd never get to tell her how much she means to me but I was able to and I'm so thankful for those little moments but I still don't feel it is enough so I'm leaving this letter here for the world to see how much this one person means to me and to get a little understanding of what they're going to miss when she's gone.
Vita,
You are by far the most beautiful
person I have been blessed to meet. You truly taught me what love is.
You taught me what a real friendship is. I have loved every moment I
have had with you I can not nor will I ever be able to express how
much I love you. Friendships are so weird because you just kinda pick
a person and say yup this is my person and you were my person. I am
so upset that you are not allowed to stay here longer. Its not fair.
Of all the people in the world you have so much to give but God has
deemed it necessary to take you home. I have no doubt that I will see
you again some day but I don't want to have to wait to spend eternity
with you. My life will be a little less when you leave and I wish I
could come and spend every single day with you until its time to say
our final goodbyes. I know this is not plausible but its how I feel.
I don't find it fair that someone who
truly emulates God's love be taken away so soon. Do you know how rare
that is to find? You deserve so much better than what this earthly
realm has provided you. The world needs to know what it will lose but
unfortunately it will never know how amazing you are. Only those of
us lucky enough to cross your path will ever know
You came along in my time when I didn't
trust any girls. I've never had a girl friend that lasted long
because they always turned out to be untrustworthy, two faced, or I
would do something that upset them and they would completely turn on
me. I had a really low view on friendships with females because they
always ended with me being told how bad of a friend I am. You
completely changed that. I didn't want to be your friend at first
because I was afraid it would turn out like all my other “best
friends” but I'm so glad I opened up to you. I am so happy you were
a part of my wedding, and I am so happy that you have been a part of
my life. I love that we could talk about anything and everything and
even when we didn't see eye to eye on something we were respectful of
each others views. You showed me what a true best friend is and
showed me how to be a best friend. I just hope that I've been able to
be as good to you as you were to me.
You are truly and utterly my favorite
person in the whole world and I love you so much. I will miss you
beyond reason my friend but I hope you know that you will never be
alone. You will always be in my heart.
