SOUL SISTER

Rebecca sent me a letter last year for my birthday that I still haven't recovered from.

Here goes:

LETTER TO A WARRIOR

Hi,

I remember the first time I saw you,

Cute, funny, a lovelier version of me;

You seemed so at peace with yourself,

Embracing the weird side stronger than I ever had.

You charmed me. Lol, no homo.

I got to know you better, your cares, your fears,

I even got to see some of your battle scars.

They were lovely and reminded me even the prettiest things go through a war.

You're the sun rays that meet my eyes on cloudy days. The moon light reflecting on my skin on sad and lonely nights.

We may not be as close as we are with other people, but I see you as my better half.

Let me tell you a secret;

I've wished you were my sister , best friend, a lover even.

But even if all we get is the plain "hi's" and "hellos", I'll cherish them and find a room for them in my heart.

I want to remind you that although the battles seem long, hard and never ending, never become the me that chose to surrender to the war and drowned in her own losses.

Be the you that sees the beauty in every flower, even the dead ones.

The you that sees the positive in every word: the nucleus.

Remain the brave warrior that will fight inspire of the battle aches. The warrior to charge her army when it's looking like the fight is almost lost. The warrior Christ has enabled you to be.

Remain those 2 great lights in my life and reflect on me from a distance and maybe in our next lives, we'll be the "us" I dreamed of.

Yours Lovingly,

Rebs.

Even after years of meeting her, everyday trumps the last. I want you to remember the name RED.FLOWER. She's the perfect definition of Sunshine and Positive Energy.
