And I could not agree with her more.

I cannot remember how we became friends.

It was long before we cared about what was cool.

I connected with her instantly and formed a life-long bond.

She is someone that I consider my soulmate.

She is someone who will always be an especially important part of my life.

From a young age, she was very funny.

She was never mean.

She told me life is unpredictable and you never know when things will change.

It is more than self-care, it is maintaining your sanity by staying healthy.

It is one thing to enjoy a cocktail, another to wake up with a hangover weekly.

She told me to love my knees.

She told me to give a shot to surround myself with good people.

She told me to make friends for who they are, not for what they can do for me.

She makes me feel like everything is going to be okay.

She told me not to keep count of who does more.

She meant that how happy and unhappy I am depends completely on how I choose to see the world.

My best friend knows what is going on in my heart before I get a chance to tell her.

I love her so much.
