To My Best Friend

I bought my favorite movie today, Pretty in Pink. I'm always up late listening to music and I was thinking about my movie I bought then I burst into tears. My best friend and I would always watch 80s movies together. My senior year of high school her family left and moved away. That was a tough year for me and I missed having her around.

Since then she has gotten married, moved again, and has a baby. I haven't seen her in two years and she is finally coming to visit. While I was thinking about all this, something hit me. Images from all the times we had to part ways filled my mind and I started to cry. At first it was no big thing, then I started to cry real hard and started to wish she never moved away from me that year and would have stayed.

A few minutes later I realized that this was very selfish of me and started crying again. Life has it's way of working things out, but sometimes I'm stubborn and want things my way. I want her to be here with me now, but I know I have to be patient for her visit.

It's funny because I'm actually crying right now because I'm remembering all the fun things we used to do together. We were so silly. One of the things I wanted to do tonight was just hug her and tell her how much I love and miss her. We will be best friends forever no matter how many miles are in between us.

I realize this is a very short blog about someone who is very important to me and it should be longer, but it's late, I've been crying, and my thoughts are all jumbled. Writing calms me down and I know there will probably be more blogs in the future about her, like when she comes to visit. But sometimes, there is a lot more meaning behind fewer words. I love you, Tera.
