A bond that can't be broken.


Laura and i became friends in sixth grade and in our early high school years we became bff.  Our interests were somewhat similar yet our personalities so different yet complimentary.  She knew my passions, insecurities, standards, political viewpoints, religious beliefs, dislikes, quirks, relationship dynamics, and concerns.  she still does.
Even with the distance our choices in Universities brought we held on to each other.  Every year since we graduated from high school laura will come visit me around October/ November and i visit her over the summer. 
While talking to my mom about laura's visit last week i realized that what laura and i have is something so beautiful.  Maintaining a best friend like friendship for 10 + years in and of itself is a rarity, especially when i think of everything we've had to overcome i know it's a one of a kind friendship.
I am so grateful to have a friend who even though is not LDS tries to understand and always is open with spirtual discussion.  
She is a spiritual giant in my life, my thrifting companion, my sister-friend, my mentor, my comforter, my best friend.
she completes me.
