Grateful for My Best Friend

I am grateful for my best friend.

My best friend makes me happy, no matter the mood

My best friend makes me feel loved, even when I feel unlovable

My best friend heals when I am hurt

My best friend hears when I need to be heard

My best friend transforms the better into the best

My best friend is man amongst boys

My best friend is wise but does not speak of wisdom

My best friend teaches without telling

My best friend is neither satisfied by my mediocrity

Nor amenable to my excuses

My best friend shines amid blackness

My best friend loves even when I rage

My best friend is there even when I am lost

My best friend is family

I am grateful for my best friend.
