My best friend.

Although society professes otherwise, I have found a friend. A friend, mind you, who is not of the same sex. That is correct; we share no common physical or hormonal characteristics, except that we are both taller than the average smuck. How can this be? To be honest, I don’t really know. You might as well ask how can it not be? Did that ever occur to you? So what does one get out of a friendship like this?

Well for starters, there is an exchange of ideas, concepts, and perceptions that one might not have had before hand. Second, there is a cancelling factor, or a neutralizing element that brings out this best in both of us. One is not completely like the other, and when we are combined, we make a pretty good team. We are both very outgoing and adventurous, but where one might be idealistic, the other would be realistic. At times, we trade of with each other on matters of such, and it keeps us both in line with reality.

Some people do not realize the potential of a friendship like this, and miss out on some great life experiences due to lack of vision. This is not an easy thing to accomplish, but with a little preparation and experience from my numerous sisters, I already had the necessary tools to work with. So here’s to the best friend ever; Kaly. You rock-

  1. Awww. I agree with you, by the way. I've found that when you look past the "idea" that seems to be out there that you'd be very surprised at how many people would like to shatter the stereotype. And I'm glad for that.

    Also, I'm so glad you write here. I'm excited about reading what you have to say.

    Love you.
