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 the 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.
