Do you have a best friend? How old is your friendship?
For eight years I've had a best friend, despite circumstances which have drawn us apart more than we are able to be together. We've had many, many problems in the form of both controllable mishaps as well as unforeseeable (at least on my part) tragedies, and more than a few times has my world shifted due to these, but we still love each other despite everything. Our friendship is incredibly important to me even though we now live many states away, and even though the road has been difficult, I'm so thankful that we've been in each others' lives.
