- like you for your strong points and accept you for your weak points
- you can have good conversation with
- who respect you and value your friendship
- you can go long periods of time without speaking and then pick right back up where you left off
- will take you on your birthday to get birthday cake and hot chocolate coffee even though the weather is horrible outside
- remind you when things are tough, that you have every right to feel the way you do, and remind you that "you will get through this"
- will get drunk with you, and when someone tells you, that you're being too loud, they tell that person "oh relax"
- has your back on the good days and the bad
- knows when to be the good cop and when to be the bad cop
- lets you know when you're being too hard on yourself
- Goes with you to see Mama Mia even though she hates ABBA
- Is there for you even when they're busy, or sick or have family in town or just plain tired
- knows when to be there for you and when to give you your space
- reminds you on bad days that you're "brilliant"
This past year has been a very challenging year, full of lots of changes. The silver lining in all of this, is that I have been fortunate to be shown time and time again, how lucky I am to have such dedicated, intelligent, beautiful, funny friends that work hard and play hard. I have been so blessed to have these people in my life, who remind me to not take life too seriously.
