WHHHEEEEE for D

It's been way too long and I am so bummed out. Our computer was receiving a makeover and therefore I had no access to my blog-the horror! This is my first time alone on the computer in 3 days and I am so glad to be back.
This date in my history is very significant. It's a special anniversary of sorts and I need to pause and reflect upon what this day has brought me over the years. I made the most special friend of my life on this date and I will never forget it because it literally saved my life. No, I did not meet honey on this date. He is of course my best friend. This friend I made put me on the path to meeting honey. This friend put me on the path to being who I am today. I have so many fabulous memories of this friend and the times we have shared that I smile every time one pops in my head. We loved, we lost, we laughed, we cried, we shared, we stood by each other in our darkest times. I am still friends with this person. I dearly pray I never lose contact with this person. We are not as close as I thought we always would be. Teenagers have no clue what life is really like. I think there were times we thought absolutely nothing would ever keep us apart. We grew up, we matured, we got married and had kids, we moved, but life has led us to each other again in a simpler fashion. I know I can tell this person anything. I can tell lots of people lots of things and I have many special things only a few people know. Of course honey knows it all, but when I need perspective from someone who once loved me dearly, but now only as a close friend, I can turn to this person. Our friendship has stood the test of time and everything else. We have never uttered a cross word to one another (so very rare indeed). I have never had an ill thought of this person. We both just want the best for each other. Of course honey and I want that for each other as well, but when you live with someone and share a life with them, you are bound to disagree somewhere down the line. (And I would never wish any ill to my honey, but boys can just be boys and girls have their moments and 'nuff said!) I guess it's just been awhile since I properly honored this day in my history and sometimes things need to be honored. I feel the need to pay respect to the person who saved me from myself and the evils in my life. I need to pay respect to the person who made me want to be a better person. D, I salute you and I honor our very special friendship. WHHHEEEEE to you, and I hope to have at least another 17 years :)
