Recently, while sorting through some old photographs, I stumbled upon several snapshots of our younger selves. Those images of our beaming faces prompted me to reflect on who we were back then. We were youthful, adventurous, and certainly a bit reckless. Yet, even amid our youthful naivety, there was an unspoken understanding that we would always be there for each other. You were always my go-to person, and I was yours. It was just that simple.
I remember the days when we would bond over episodes of our favorite shows, like when one character told another they were “their person.” That moment resonated with so many of us, leading to heartfelt hugs and tears as we recognized that special connection.
As the years rolled by, life became more intricate, demanding, and chaotic. However, one truth has remained unchanged: you are still my person, and you always will be.
Today, we have fewer snapshots of our adventures together. Our friendship often exists through a flurry of text messages that capture the essence of our bond. These messages tell stories of long conversations that consume our data plans, punctuated by periods of silence. They hold “I love you” and “I miss you” notes, alongside shared memes and nostalgic images. They also convey the depth of our feelings, even when life pulls us in different directions.
Yet, these texts can’t reveal every nuance. They can’t express the nights I lie awake reminiscing about simpler times when girl talk was just a hallway away or a quick stop at a cafe. They can’t fully articulate how much I truly miss you or the fears I have about the impact of time and distance on our friendship.
We’ve evolved, each with fuller lives and new challenges, yet the foundation of our friendship remains steadfast: love, respect, and understanding. Our conversations have shifted from trivial beauty tips to deeper topics like health and family struggles. We still share laughter and support, but now it’s often over brunch with mimosas instead of late-night escapades. We once thought our bond would be seamless as we aged, but we’ve learned that maintaining our connection requires effort, patience, and a sprinkle of grace.
Despite the obstacles, we continue to prioritize each other. We find ways to connect through calls, texts, and occasional meet-ups, though it’s never as often as we’d like. I think of you constantly, reminding myself that despite everything, you will always be my person.
