To My Most Dearest Friend,
You are beautiful. From your gap-toothed smile, to your blonde streak at the front of your head; from your always-bare feet to your freckled shoulders; from your creative mind to your dancing soul -- you are beautiful.
And no one can take that away from you.
No one.
We all know that you're not exactly innocent, I mean, trust me, I've been there at four a.m. when you're hungry, hyper, and maybe a little drunk and all you want is pizza but no one has any and you're so angry not even Supernatural can calm you down. The words I've heard from your mouth could make a sailor cry.
But even then, you're still beautiful.
The type of beautiful you are can't be fully captured in a photograph, nor can it be fully expressed on a resume, a report card, on a canvas, in a dance, or in words. Each of these things may reveal a little bit of your beauty, but compared to all the beauty you have, these little snapshots barely capture anything at all.
But I'm going to try and explain it anyways.
Your type of beauty is the type of beauty that makes people cry at sunsets and they have no idea why. Your type of beauty is the type of beauty that compels an artist to paint the same landscape through out their entire life. Your type of beauty is the type of beauty that sends shivers down the spines of people listening to really good poetry. Your type of beauty is the type of beauty that exists in the euphoria of a perfectly executed orchestral piece. Your type of beauty is the satisfaction of Dean and Sam hugging after Dean gets out of hell. Your type of beauty is the view from on top of the sun pyramid at midday. Your type of beauty is the first flower after winter, the first star after sunset, and the first drop of rain after a drought.
And any one who doesn't appreciate all of this, all of you, for everything you are and everything you feel and think and say and do, does not deserve to have you in their life.
And at any time if you ever feel like you're not good enough, pretty enough, smart enough, strong enough, creative enough, funny enough, kind enough, confident enough, loving enough, just now that you ARE enough. You are so wonderfully enough. Yes, you are not perfect, but you are everything it means to be perfectly flawed. You will fail, and you have failed before - but you will do so gracefully, beautifully. You will also succeed. You will succeed so amazingly that everyone who knows you will feel a light inside them start to glow.
And I am so, so, so proud of you. Everything you do, everything you are, everything you feel, think, and believe - I am so proud of you. One of my favorite things to do is tell people about you. "Look at her. Look at my beautiful friend. Isn't she wonderful? Look at all she has done! Look at all she is! Isn't she amazing?"And when I think about you, talk about you, look at you, interact with you I just feel all this happiness, all this pride, all this love just swell up inside me and I just want to share you with everyone but at the same time keep you all to myself. But I guess that is what being wives is all about.
So please. Always know that you are beautiful. Always know that I love you. Always know that you can do anything you set your mind to. Never let anyone tell you otherwise. Never stop believing in yourself. Never doubt yourself. You are one of the most beautiful young women I know and you have already done so many fantastic things, and you will only continue to be amazing.
I love you with all of my soul, you are truly what it means to have a soul mate.
Sincerely and with a great big huge,
Your Wifey.
