A three in One friend "A mother, a sister & a daughter"


Years ago I knew how to manage and live without a long-term friend. Independency was always so important to me and I wasn’t ready to have a friend whom going to take away my freedom in being alone for a while whenever and wherever I want. 

Maybe my experiences with friends weren’t that good. I used to have friends whom thought of me as their one and only property. Seeing me dealing with other people was considered a crime that I have to be punished for. Another category was those so-called friends but in fact they stab you from behind and are jealous of whom you are. Of course I had the honor also to meet the kind of people who use their friends in having their jobs done. There are for sure many and many others so bottom of line I was never lucky in finding a good friend along my life.

But now I can say out loud and with the highest volume of my own voice that I have a friend that is now categorized as “no-longer existing strain of friends”.

You know that kind of a friend they tell about in stories. The one that’s always by your side, knows how to keep a secret, cares for you & can turn into a listening machine when you need to talk. A friend that feels comfortable only when you are okay & considers your problems as her own.

I have to admit that I consider myself lucky to have such an amazing friend.
To me she is a mother, sister and a daughter;

A mother, because as long as she exists in a place, regardless of how much scary it is, I feel safe & when I see her coming, it’s like a daughter who finally find her mom after being lost for days. She cares for me more than for herself. When I’m not okay I can catch worry filling her eyes.

A sister, because I can almost tell her everything about me. She knows exactly how I feel and answers lots of my question. I trust her unconditionally with my secrets because I’m sure she can keep them.

A daughter, because sometimes I feel responsible for her. I try to give her advices as much as I can. When she is stressed, I feel it’s my duty to cheer her up. Whenever I can, I try to be there when she needs me.

Describing my friend needs years and years. She helped me out through my toughest of times, was there for me when I needed her the most. I discovered a whole new me when I knew her.

It’s true that I may disagree with her. Sometimes we get mad from each other though it doesn’t last long. She also doesn’t like some things about my way of thinking xD
But what differs here from other friendships is understanding. We deal with our differences wisely.
And for all that I thank her from the deepest of my heart,
because in the end, “that’s what friends are for”. 

May God keep us together for as long as we shall live.
Dedicated to my Dear friend Mona “,)

P.S. I can almost swear that whoever said “A friend in need is a friend indeed” must’ve known you!!
