A best friend is irreplaceable

I'VE LEARNED:

• that there are many good friends around, but true best friends are hard to come by
• that a best friend is more important than a boyfriend
• that sometimes the most used part of a friend is the shoulder you cry on, and the shoulder you are willing to lend
• that the only one who truly understands is a true friend.
• that sometimes it feels like a best friend is the only one who will ever care about you and think you are beautiful in your own way.
• that a friend will call you in the middle of the night to talk without thinking, and it's OK.
• that in many cases, a hug and a kind word from a friend is the only thing that helps get you through the day.
• (this one's especially for Giz...) that friends can sing at the top of their lungs and not worry about singing the wrong words or being out of tune
• (this is for shivani...) that when you are true best friends, everyone else knows it
• that a best friend used to be just an acquaintance
• that, most importantly, best friends will always be best friends, no matter what is happening in their lives, where they are, or what they are doing.
