I don’t remember when your name first entered my world or when I first realized I was actually going to come to call you a real life friend, but in the short time we’ve known each other I’m already grateful for so many different aspects of your friendship and your life here on this earth. I truly can’t imagine the last year or so without your wisdom, sass, and friendship.
You inspire me to not only continue onwards, but upwards as well. Despite the inevitable pain and obstacles that are always on the path before us, you motivate me to continue reaching, to step into my full potential and to seek the goodness that is out there every day.
Your soul is a resilient one. It’s full of character and strength, having been through the fire a few times in life and emerging standing on the other side, possibly burnt but still whole. The energy that curses through your cells is spurred by a desire to know and do more, to be more. I know your journey forever forwards will never be a boring one. I know it will always be paved in faith and lit by an inner inspiration and motivation that will never cease. And if it does, I’ll be here to remind you of all the good things in this life and of all the great that awaits you.
And I know he’s proud of you. He always will be.
It’s an honor to call you a friend.
Thank you & I love you.
