Thank you for being my friend,

Thank you for believing in me, when I found it difficult to believe in myself, for saying what I needed to hear, instead of what I wanted to hear; for siding with me, and for giving me another side to consider. Thank you for keeping me from taking myself or problems to seriously, and for not laughing at me when I was too sensitive to laugh at myself. Thank you for opening up yourself to me, for trusting me with your thoughts, disappointments, and dreams; for knowing you can depend on me and asking my help when you needed it. Thank you for putting so much thought and care into our relationship; for sharing so many nice times and making so many special memories with me. Thank you for always being honest with me, being kind to me, being there for me. Thank you for being a friend to me in so many truly meaningful ways.

Love, Barbara
