I have just a couple of people to appreciate in my life, especially my parents, and just a few of my inner circle. Still, I will talk about this one person who has been outstanding and deserves to be openly appreciated, moreover, that person is in this space and will probably get to read this, so why not?
My Dearest R...**💖✨
I don’t know where to start, but I will start with “thank you.” A sincere thank you not just for what you have done for me, but for who you have been to me.
Thank you for being the kind of person who doesn’t just show up when it’s convenient, but even more when it’s not. From our university days till now, you have been constant. Always willing to help, always offering support, always saying, “Anytime you need anything, just let me know.” I heard that line from you so many times, and you meant it every single time. You saw me at some of my lowest points. You have seen me cry, you have seen me worried, you have seen me lost, yet you didn’t walk away instead, you stayed. You didn’t run or get tired of me. You didn’t try to fix me, you just stayed and that meant a lot to me.
You have supported my dreams more than some people who have known me all my life, pushed me when I want to quit, and always remind me that I’m capable of becoming more.
I know I haven’t always been fair to you. I have hurt you most times. I have ignored you sometimes. I have pushed you away several times and still, you didn’t change. Your character never changed. You remained kind and consistent. So many people change when they are hurt, or when they are no longer getting something in return. But you didn’t. Your heart stayed the same.
Thank you for your patience, for your commitment, for your understanding, for every time you looked past my flaws and just chose to love and support me. Thank you for every form of support. Thank you for choosing to see the best in me. This is me, telling you openly and honestly, I see you, I appreciate you, and value you beyond words. And just like the song lyrics "Thank God I Found You by Mariah Carey", I'm grateful for the gift of you but then the chorus should express how grateful I am right now;
"Thank God I found you
I was lost without you
My every wish and every dream
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight
Completed my whole life
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
'Cause baby I'm so thankful I found you"
P.S:You know I could write a whole book about you, but I have to stop here so I don't go beyond the 500-word count given to us. 😅
