These are the moments I live for. The moments we live for. When my best friend is impeccably joyful, it's contagious. She has a way of spreading her happiness like a wildfire, which I think is ironic, since she often metaphorically compares herself to natural disasters. If you're lucky enough to have someone in your life who is constantly there for you through all the seasons of your life; who listens to you rant and makes you laugh; who needs you just as much as you need them; do not, I repeat DO NOT, let them go. Hold on tight, because, especially during these oh-so-difficult teenage years, quality people are hard to find, and even harder to keep.
Tia Baker and I always used to (and still do) joke about how we were probably actually supposed to be sisters. But now thinking about it, God made us best friends for a reason (because we are so gosh darn alike, we'd probably kill each other if we were siblings). She's my blessing without disguise, a generally rad person, a hecka quality human being, and my "sister".
So right now, at 10:14 AM on a Tuesday, I'm dancing around my room listening to good music and jamming hardcore, because my best friend reminded me how fun it is to be in a good mood. And I get a great workout out of it.
