The world is fucked up. completely and utterly fucked up. I recently lost one of my best friends, and am having a hard time imagining or wrapping my head around the fact that something so tragic could happen to someone so full of life. If anything, it has taught me the importance of acknowledging those I love around me. So to those who I've been blessed to know, I love you all. I hope that it was known... or is known.

The things I meant to say but didn’t.
I love you, more than you know. I am at a loss and full of regret at the thought of the things I didn’t do, the time that was lost in distance. You are an unbelievable person, and an unbelievable friend. Your loyalty was fierce, your self assurance incomparable. You knew who you were from a child and you never let anyone bring you down or compromise your beliefs. You were the strongest child I knew, and you grew into the strongest woman I have ever known.
I can’t fathom that you are gone, that you won’t be there when I come home, that your warm laugh and witty sarcasm won’t greet me. Your level headed advice and stubborn streak won’t be there to guide me. I can’t imagine the world without you. 
Those who loved you loved you fiercely. I can’t even begin to describe the impact you had on my life, I am grateful to of known such a beautiful individual, to have you included in the most important memories of my life. I will never forget you.
