Because I know I can depend on you.
Because you know when to laugh at me
and when to take me seriously.
Because you know what to repeat and
what to keep to yourself.
Because you sense the feelings behind
my words.
Because you always see something
positive in me.
Because you are never fake but are always
honest with me.
Because you are a giver not only of your
time but of yourself.
Because you are a rare combination of
strength and sensitivity.
Because you know me better than most
people.
Because you are not afraid to step out
into the unknown.
And most of all, because I have the
privilege of calling you "friend."
