An ode to friendship!

Not to the 1 AM friends,

but to the ones you never call —

and yet you know they’ll answer when you’re ready.

Not to the ones you meet every day,

but to those who live miles away,

still quietly settled in your heart.

Not to the ones you rush to hug,

but to those who simply smile your way —

and suddenly, life feels lighter.

To the old friends who saw you rebel,

to the ones who held you through heartbreaks,

to those who shared the laughter and exhaustion of motherhood,

and to the ones who have watched you grow — wiser, softer, older.

To endless talks, to silent fights, to tears of laughter and the silent jokes

To the friends who left too soon,

to those who walked away, waiting somewhere down the road,

and to the ones who walk beside you —

never together, yet never apart.

Here’s to friendship —

to the new and the old,

to the beautiful beginnings,

and the never endings.
