growing up
True friendships are like snowflakes,
each one equally special,
yet somehow always unique.
Some friends you choose on your own-and
some, like us are chosen for one
another before we're even old
enough to speak.
Friends help each other to grow and
discover what life is all about--
Sometimes we choose to walk down
separate paths, only to return
and tell the other what was found
out.
For us girls, simply labeling yourself
a friend does not get you off the
hook--
We have several responsibilities, such
as gossiping, doing each other's
hair, and reassuring each other how
fat we DON'T look!
True friends never judge--we'll stand
by each other no matter how poor of
choices one of us might make.
We see one another through sleepless
nights and tears, never sure when
the sadness will break.
It's amazing how quickly life starts
passing by, the older we get.
Many times when things get rough, it
seems easiest to simply just quit.
But after all life's up's and down's,
you've been lucky enough to find
someone who makes you complete in
life.
Someone not to replace us all, but to
add to your happiness--who wants
you as his very own princess and
to make you his wife.
