I've been needing some clarity lately. Things have been muggy and my line of vision is fuzzy. Half thoughts and hesitations have become a constant, and I'm just so ready to let it all go.
So I did the one thing that always helps. I called my best friend.
Two rings and one hello later, I instantly felt at ease. What magic.
As I mumbled and rushed my way through a hard-to-say story, she listened and did what any self-respecting best friend would do; she held me together.
She had my back.
I forgot what it was like to have someone just support me, no questions asked. And that feeling more than anything was what I needed for all the muddled thoughts to clear up. She reminded me of who I am and the power that I possess. She reminded me that despite my hard-headedness, I am determined, strong and I know what I deserve.
She told me that others around me were being unfair, and I shouldn't fall into their trap.
She lifted me up and kept me together.
We've been best friends for an eternity which makes it easy to take our friendship for granted or forget how important it is to talk over the phone instead of just text, but man after today, I don't think I'll forget the strength and magic of this friendship of ours. The universe knew what it was doing when the put us together, and I just feel so lucky.
