Diversion

Another appreciation post.

Hello there! To the person who came at the very right time when I pushed away the world, thank you. 

We met two years ago. I was a hopeless student about to drop my course (or everything really) but you approached me. Since then, we became buddies and I held onto you, so tightly even if I don't know you. You didn't give up on me too. We made it, together! And, towards the end of the course, I really thought our contact will end with it. What is there to say? You obviously don't need me. You didn't need me but you stayed. And I was just talking to you today, and sometimes, I am just mystified by the thought that we have been friends for two years and we have been constantly talking. I appreciate you. I appreciate all the times you initiated talking to me since day one because sometimes, I couldn't start a conversation with anyone even if I wanted to. I still get motivated by your words and I still look forward to our plans together and how we strive to be better every time. You were my ball of positivity in this cruel world but you don't just say nice things. You make them happen. You never failed to make me smile because you always find something so genuine amidst all chaos. You were a ray of light that radiates your name that i can spell with H, O, P and E.

I hope we stay like this. I admit I still don't know much about you after all this time but I have already declared that you are my forever friend. You are one of the best people I know and you have the best intentions. (You didn't hesitate to take me in when I felt nothing.) And now, I'm back on my feet. You are the low key MVP. :)

You got my back! I'm going to pull you up if it's your turn to be in the slump. We're gonna laugh our asses about this shitty world and push our way forward. Let's put the plans we talked about into action. Let's be our best selves together.
