Best Friends

What is a best friend?

A best friend is a soulmate, and not necessarily in a romantic sense either.

A best friend is someone with whom you would entrust your entire soul.

A best friend is someone you can be comfortable with, physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally, any -ally you care to name.

A best friend is a person who will always tell you how they feel, and yet...

A best friend supports you in all your decisions whether or not they agree.

A best friend is a shoulder to cry on.

A best friend will lead you on the right path but only if you want them to, because they respect your wishes.

A best friend is gentle with your feelings, and is not the kind of person to tell you you're being stupid unless it's really, really necessary, and I'm talking life-and-death situations kind of necessary.

A best friend may still find little, subtle ways to tell you that you're being stupid, but only in ways so you can figure things out on your own.

A best friend is the family you choose.

A best friend will let you be weak and strong.

A best friend is the arm around your shoulders when you thought you'd have to walk this path alone.

A best friend is the poke in the sides when you need a laugh, and sometimes just because it's kinda funny to watch you squirm.

A best friend is the opposite of pressure, and they will help you bear your burdens with no mention of what you can do in return for their service.

A best friend is what we all need to strive to be.

Being a best friend is much more important than having one, after all.
