To My Friends,

When I sold books door-to-door, they told us to surround ourselves by the people we want to be. So, if you wanted to be a high school drop out, hang out with other high school drop-outs. If you wanted to be successful, hang out with successful people. I want to be a successful, compassionate, caring person that people know they can count on. I’m not sure where I am in that goal, but I try to stick with those I admire. So, this is a tribute to those whom I call friend.

You’re my friend because:

• You make me laugh,
• You are intelligent,
• You are compassionate,
• You listen, really well,
• You juggle various roles,
• You are humble about your accomplishments,
• You have a colorful, beautiful story,
• You are thoughtful, and
• You make me want to be a better person.

Thank you for being my friend.

Me
