Some people come into our lives and barely leave a trace; others leave a string of footprints etched upon our hearts, letting us know they are with us every step we take.
You have been stamping all over my heart since the day we haven't see each other again. And with the years passed by, I love how I witnessed this friendship for each other have grown. Together we're stronger and braver.
Life, sometimes it pulls the rug from under our feet. Suddenly, we find ourselves broken and unable to get back up. When I thought all hope had gone, you were always there to sweep me off of my feet, dust me down and tell me everything is going to be okay. You have been faithful to be the only one still cheering and giving me that little piece of hope to carry on. You are the anchor to keep me grounded when life has a tendency to blow me away. You are the wind beneath my little wings, keeping me going when I feel like giving up. You weren’t just a friend, you are a sister I never had who make light of any situation life throw the way.
Thank you for being a true friend. For sticking by me all these years.Thank you for letting me pour my heart out, for listening and for not just telling me what I want to hear. Thank you for loving me when no one else would. Thank you for staying constant in a world full of change and chaos. And thank you for just being there when I need you.
It’s hard to put it into words just how much you mean to me, Sar, because words will never be enough. I know my year for now wouldn’t be the same without you. We have walked so far, laughed so hard, and cried a sea of tears and comforted each other when days hit us so hard. We have climbed each other’s highest peaks, and travelled through the darkest of valleys. You held my hand during my heartbreaks. You wiped my fears when inside of me was dying. You raised me up when life had beaten me to the ground, and you spurred me on during moments of weakness.
With you by my side my little world has become a better place-- happy tears and enchantment. You are the most beautiful person, inside and out. You are selfless, compassionate and wise beyond your years.
You have taught me many things in life that you never know. When I was at my worst – eyes closed, hands clenched and lost in the music – you didn’t judge me. You must have been sad for me so hard inside, but you managed to keep a straight face and even told me I still sounded great. Thank you for still seeing the good in me.
You taught me to face my fears. You taught me to fight life. During my darkest days you were God's light that guided my way. I couldn’t have escaped the chains I was trapped in, if it wasn’t for you turning up and ordering that I must go from them. As I stepped out, it felt liberating to have finally faced some of my fears and put the past quite literally behind me. I owe that to you, Sar!
You taught me to always be truthful. Like how you do. I will always receive an honest answer to every question I asked you.
You taught me to always acknowledge and embrace God's favor in our lives. Thank you for setting an example.

Thank you for being my partner‑in‑crime, my badminton buddy, my eating companion, my personal life anchor, my tambourine dancing sister, and so much more. Thank you for all the glorious memories, wrapped up in a bow of nostalgia, so beautiful it brings a tear to my eye.
And no matter how much distance is between us; no matter how many days, weeks and months we haven’t spoken and texted to each other; we always pick up where we left.
My beautiful friend, what more can I say? In years from now, I hope I will still be cushioned under your protective wing. I have no doubt that you will still be the person who could turn my every frown into a smile and comfort, the person who lifts me up when I am losing faith and the person who understands my tears. I’m pretty sure that we will still see each other again, together, of course :), desiring to travel to some good places together with Mimie and Alyanna. :)
I am blessed because we will still be the best of friends! To our faithful and loving God, I am so thankful!
I will love you always,
Aimae
