Because I know I can depend
on you.
Because you know when to
laugh at me and when to take me seriously.

Because you know what to
repeat and what to keep to yourself.
Because you sense the feelings
behind the words.
Because you always see
something positive in me.

Because you are never fake
but are always honest with me.
Because you are a giver
not only of your time but of yourself.
Because you are a rare
combination of strength and sensitivity.

Because you know me better
than most people.
Because you are not afraid
to step out into the unknown.
And most of all because
I have the privilege of calling you friend.
