Maybe one, if not two, people we met along the way destined to be the one that we would give our life for. I am sure wherever we maybe at this moment, however far apart, I'll occupy a part of her inner thoughts and I hers.
(Us, looking gorgeous in a high school farewell dinner, dated almost a decade ago)
There is such a thing called girlfriends. They're the ones who'd come to your rescue when 'that' time of the month button turned on accidentally. They're the ones that would certainly be there when you complain head-throbbing or even when your hearts shattered to million pieces. Yes, they'll put their hands around you, hug you close, shelter your face shameless tears destroying your mascara on your failed date. And they're there with kisses and joyful tears when you're at your best (yet).
(Sometimes, all it takes is several thousands miles to be grateful for the gift of best girlfriends)
I think, I believe, and I am sure of this one fact: Nothing I won'ttrade for a girlfriend, the best girlfriend. A husband may leave me for another woman/man, parents may disown me when they've given up hope on me, siblings may act like they don't know you once they got tired of you. But not a true, awesome girlfriend.
Why? It's mutual love I think. I love her because I can say out loud stuff to her that I cannot utter in the real world (like I've got a crush on my form teacher who's decades senior than me). I love her simply for being there--in trial and best moments. I am so blessed with many best girlfriends, who over the years, if not decades, despite being preoccupied with their own personal attendings to other stuff, will still call me in the middle of my nights to tell me they're elated or sometimes cry over the phone.
If you (man or woman) happened to find somebody that would lay their life down for you, I believe it's one of the best examples of God's miracles. Treasure them!
Comments: I read a quote about a mother relationship to her daughter somewhere before, but I think it's appropriate to dedicate this to my best girlfriends out there! "Walk not in front of me for I may not follow. Neither would you walk behind me for I may not lead. Walk by my side, and be my friend."
