To the person who has helped me, Thank you for all the good times and bad times. Thank you for helping me learn and grow up. Thank you for the love and support.

Thank you for letting be myself to you. Thank you for letting me come to you about my problems and helping me solve them. When I was stressed or upset; thank you for being there. Thank you for listening when no one else would. Thank you for hearing me out. Thank you for caring about me and making sure I am okay. Thank you for your trust and encouragement. I am glad that you’re in my life. Thank you for staying here with me through the rough times.

Thank you for checking in on me after i have a bad day. for always being there for me, no questions asked. for always caring even when it’s stupid. for always listening when i know you don’t care. for never judging me or leaving me when i’m breaking down. for always loving me through the good, the bad, and the ugly. for never staying mad at me even though i give you every reason to. for staying by my side when i know i don’t make it easy. for always making me feel at home and safe when i’m with you. for always offering the best advice and help to me that you can. for always hugging me tight when i need it the most. for never failing to put a smile on my face, even when you aren’t trying to. for being a part of some of my best memories. for being the best person in my life and letting me be a part of your life. for never giving up on me, especially when i give up on myself.

Thank you for being you and for letting me be me. Thank you for letting me feel so much like myself when I’m with you. Thank you for not making me wear any masks or put on any fronts. Thank you for sharing in my happiest moments; for listening to my saddest stories and radiating compassion and empathy from wherever you happened to be. Thank you for being the only person I ever want to confide in.
