Friendship.

Some friends are like plants. They come and go with the seasons. But every once and a while you find that friend that is like the tree who sticks through every season with all of it's leaves or none at all. No matter the condition they're still there.

Lately i've had to find out who my true friends are. The ones i want to keep forever and then the ones who are only there because i let them be.

I've come to know this gal more than i ever had imagined. It was just a few years ago i was looking at her in the hallways wondering if I'd ever get to tell her how much i looked up to her. How beautiful she was.

God had better plans. Little did we both know that one stupid little biology project would grow the seed of a lifetime. This girl is without a doubt my dearest friend. We've been through ALOT and we have lots more to face. But in the past few hours when one of us hit another bump in the road i realized how much i truly do admire her friendship.

She left to move to Florida in November. Possibly one of the hardest things i've dealt with in the friend department. I really thought our relationship would crumble through the cracks but we have grown so close and we have done far better at remaining in contact.

I often find myself just wanted to walk to her house and sit on her bed watching "Country Strong" And paint our nails. Or go take a swim in my pool jamming to country music. Even though it's not possible and we both miss those days. It makes going to visit each other in a few months SO much more anticipated. Everyone who says Long Distance Relationships don't last, well they haven't truly loved someone enough to make it work.

and like i tell her, when things go down hill. Just dream about rainbows and unicorns. ;)

{Gotta love an inside joke!}

Friendship is the golden thread that ties us all together!

I love you Chels!
