A Letter To My Best Friends

Submitted by Daniella Avisado

Dear Best Friend(s),

If someone were to ask me what I’m most thankful for, my answer would be instant: you guys. That’s a question that doesn’t require any thought—because I’m so sure. Of course, I’m thankful for family, food, and good health, but you all are right up there at the top of the list. I think a lot of people underestimate the power of friendship. The difference it makes to be surrounded by good people is life-changing. Being able to find people who share the same values, morals, and lifestyle as you is a blessing. I’m lucky to say I’ve found mine.

I’ve never met a group of people with more beautiful & compassionate souls—and let’s be real, beautiful on the outside too! We’ve been there through each other’s best times, worst times, and everything in between. I’m beyond appreciative to have each of you in my life, to know I can always turn to you first for anything, and that the feeling is mutual. There’s no one else I’d want to exchange advice and “words of wisdom” with! (blind leading the blind for real). 

It’s crazy to think there was ever a time when we didn’t know each other. The memories we’ve made together since then have remained unmatched. Whether it’s hopping from rave to rave, eating (we all know we’re big backs), or going on spontaneous trips, I cherish it all. Every impulsive “if you do it, I’ll do it” decision has led to some of the best and most memorable moments of my life. The fact that we can find joy in doing anything, big or small, speaks volumes about the kind of bond we have.

I hope everyone is lucky enough to find a connection like ours. ‘Platonic soulmates’ is the best way to put it. We’re literally the same people, just in different fonts. Can’t imagine another group of people by my side. Love living life with y’all!
