There are only few people who get lucky to have real best friends,
you know, not the kind of “oh we’re best
friends because we’re often to hang out together”, or “we share the same
enemies so we’re best friends”, it’s way more than that.
See, as we grow up, we will realize that it’s less important
to have more friends, and more important to have real ones.
A best friend doesn’t need to be around all the time, but
she will be there to catch you whenever you fall.
She might be doesn’t exist on your highest day but they
won’t miss your lowest ones.
For daily examples, if you get sick, many people can ask
“are you ok? I hope you will get better soon”, but a real best friend will come
straight up to your door, take care of you and literally make you feel better
at that exact time.
Or when you have a bad day and post some random yet gloomy
quotes on some random midnights, there will be plenty of people drop comment
with sweet words, but your real best friend will chat or call you in person,
listen to your same old crap, try to make you calm, and make sure that
you will get a proper sleep that night, even if it means it will reduce her
sleep time.
A real best friend is a person who can sit by your side and
create a comforting silence. You don’t need to find any topic to break the ice,
because the silence gives you warmth.
A real best friend able to make you share your worst regrets
because she know whatever happened in the past made who you are right now.
A real best friend able to make you share your wildest
dreams, because she never underestimate you and always has a faith in you.
A real best friend give suggestions to your problem and leave
the decision to you, and whatever the results might be, she will appreciate it
and not being judgmental at all.
A real best friend not only knows all your important
stories, but also has through it with you.
A real best friend can tell you things you don’t want to
tell yourself. Because they know the real you even when you’re loosing
yourself.
And when we talk about real best friend, I guess that I’m
the luckiest.
All of the things that I’ve mentioned above based on what
she did to me, my real and true best friend, bunga mutiarasari fauziah bsa.
I’ve been knowing her since almost 11 years ago. It started
when we went into the same high school and joined the same softball team, we
even dated the baseball players hahaha! Years after years, the bond is getting
tighter and stronger. She’s the only child and I’m the only daughter in the
family, so it’s like God made us more than just best friends, God made us sisters.
I rarely say this to her, but among all the people that I’ve
met for my entire life, she’s one of the inspiring one.
Bunga comes from a not so perfect family, just like me, but
it’s amazing how she grew up as a very loving person. It’s amazing how she able to forgive those
who have hurt her, and still able to treat them tenderly. It’s amazing how she able to live
without any grudge.
Bunga doesn’t live the life as normal as any other girl,
she’s required to be independent, I know she doesn’t want to, but she has to.
She has her own job, gets her own salary, but she can’t waste or enjoy it for
her own needs only. She has to set it aside for the household bills, car
installment, and even her college fee. Seriously how many girls on her age who
does that?
But she never use all the misery she has as an excuse, she
uses it as a motivation to achieve higher. She works from 8 to 4 and continue
to her master degree class at night. Of course she feels tired, but she never
give up.
She doesn’t go into fancy place just for the sake of pride, or
post things in social media just for the sake of recognition, she has passed
that stage. She hates to hang out with people who just talk about other people.
She won’t do something just to be approved for some certain groups, because she
knows what truly matters.
One more thing that I adore from her, when it comes to love
people (family / friends / boyfriend), she will give everything to make them
happy, and she does that genuinely without hoping the payback.
And today, 18th September 2015, marks 26 years of
her life.
I don’t pray for the easier life, but I pray that God always
give you strength in any obstacle you will meet. I pray that God gives you
light even in your darkest day.
I don’t pray for the perfect one, but I pray that you will
meet the right one soon, the one that able to see the beauty inside you, the
one that appreciate all of your efforts, the one that won't leave when things get rough, the one that wont ever trade you with
any other girls, the one that will lead you to Jannah.
I don’t pray for the success life, but I pray that you will
live a meaningful life. I pray that you bring value to everyone you meet and
to everything you do. I pray that everytime you take a break and look behind, you won’t regret a thing.
And please promise you will always remember that you’re
stronger than you seem, braver than you believe, and smarter than you think :)
Selamat ulang tahun sahabatku sayang.
