"Holly you have so much strength it astounds me, to find strength in pain and hope in hurt is something that many people cannot do, if you get any stronger I'm afraid you'll turn to stone"
-Jake Sullivan.

I don't think i've ever recieved such an amazing compliment.
Just that makes me feel a thousand times better.

I'm so so so happy you're having an amazing time over there in Thailand, Jake. It fills me with happiness to know that you're learning so much and growing so much as a person. I envy your adventures, but i could not be happier for you. However, i absoulutely cannot wait for you to come home. I can't wait to give you a big hug and just pick up right where we left off.
I can't wait to hear all of the stories i haven't heard yet, and i can't wait to double ride on Joel's longboard again. I can't wait to have more picnics and go on more adventures through Aylmer and around Ottawa.
Thank you for being who you are, and thank you for being one of the best friends my eyes have ever seen. You make it easier for me to be myself, and remind me never to give up. You're the kind of person who only comes along once in a while. I feel extremely lucky to have met you, way back at the beginning when we wrapped plastic bags around our wrists and learned about eachother behind the counter at Grand& Toy.
Keep on living the way you do,
it's a beautiful thing.
