tonight i gave the best goodbye a girl could give to the best friend a girl could have for fourteen years.

it's odd how so many things can change, and yet others still remain quite the same.

we quit having classes together long ago; english this year was a stroke of good luck. we no longer share all the same friends, nor clubs nor other hobbies. our jobs are quite different, and the situations we have been placed in differ in infinity - i don't think i could leave this place; you are certainly stronger.

but what we share is so spectacularly unique that i will not even try to explain it. it's a special bond between two friends that can be seen in a two-hour conversation with no lull, that can be witnessed in the sweet memory of childhood games, that can be heard in the laughter still shared after the inevitable passage of time and an oncoming separation by miles.

there are many times when i think that all i ever recall from yesterday was just something i made up in my spare time to make it seem like i had a friend, but i know in my heart that i always had one and always will.

so here's to you. i will miss you infinitely, but God will not lead you astray; i know you will prosper in your ventures and shine like the star you always were. know that you are in my heart and in my prayers, and that the legend of the fudgecows shall never die (it was necessary to kill the moment.).

i love you!
