The Kids Are Alright

Why do we so often take our friends for granted?
Our beautiful, talented, amazing friends? The people who keep us from going crazy. The people who support us in all our endeavors. The people who shape who we become and inspire everyday.
Our go-to therapists.
Our shopping buddies.
Our out-on-the-town partners in crime.
Our shoulder to cry on.
Our families when we can't be with the actual ones (Or we need a little break from them).
Losing a friend this year has made me realize that the people who lift us up on a daily basis are far too important to let slip away. She has made me understand just how fleeting our lives really are. Just how precious our moments here all together are.
I don't want to make this post a big long mushy rant about how fantastic the people in my life are--I hope they already know how much I love them and how important they all are to me (That, and I fear I'm beginning to sound like a broken record going on and on about you crazy kids in every damn post). I just wanted to show off the fantastic people in my life and to say thank you for making me a better person than I ever thought I could be. Thank you for being my pillars, my rocks, my constants--you know who you are, and this is for you, regardless of whether I've photographed you or not...

Love You, Miss You, and Thank You. And for the record, y'all are more than alright...
