STEVIE

Throughout the course of your life, you meet endless amounts of people. They come and go, leaving footprints on your heart. But if their footprints start to fade after a while, know that it wasn't because they didn't love you, or your friendship wasn't real. Circumstances change, people change, and thats okay.

But only a few of them leave the heaviest and most prominent footprints. The ones that make an impact on your life, and the ones that feel genuine. The footprints you know you can trust the most, and after a while you know you can depend on them for anything. The ones that know you inside out, and accept you for who you are.

My friend Stevie, she's one of them. I haven't really talked about her on here before, but she's a person I'd really like to talk about now. Here are some facts about her:

She's the bravest gal i've even known, she's drama-free and doesn't make a fuss over something little. Sometimes I worry that she gives too much love away, that she doesn't have enough left for herself. She's encouraged me to achieve so many things I was to scared to do (including starting this blog). Which I couldn't be able to tell her how thankful I am of that.

If you know me, I, Sarah, hate explaining things. When i'm with Stevie I don't feel like I need to justify my actions, or explain myself. She somehow knows when I need space and how to give it to me, whilst still being there for me. She doesn't shove advice down my throat, but let's me depict these detailed melancholy ideas inside my head, so she too can understand what my starry eyes comprehend.

My favourite thing about this chica is there's never a dull day with her. Whether we're dressing up, dressing down, going out, staying home, it's always different and never boring. She's the kind of person you'd want your child to be, your best friend, your sister, your mum, your boyfriend. She's perfect.

Stevie has this way, she's so gentle but she's fiery when there's something or someone worth standing up for, and she won't take crap from anyone. And she never asks 'what's in it for me'? She'd help anyone regardless of whether she profited from it or not.

Stevie's seen me at my best and my worst, and my weirdest. She's the most genuine person i've ever met. It doesn't mean she's my closest, or my favourite person in the world - because frankly I don't have one. But our friendship doesn't need to be measured, she's someone I can trust and rely on, or just have a heart-to-heart with. There's something about her that never makes me feel tired, even when i've had enough of the world and want to be alone, I can be alone with her. 

I just wanted to acknowledge her goodness in the world. I believe she could change the world in a heartbeat, she makes feel and see the good parts of myself. We've been through a lot together, and she's always been there for me.

So thank you, you're truly an angel.

You'll only find a couple of these people in your lifetime, so make sure you treasure them. 

I love you and I'll see you soon,
