They’ve taught us that friends don’t care about what you are.
Neither does family.
They taught us that the ones we love never really go away…
…because they’re always in our hearts.
They taught us that being yourself doesn’t make you wrong,
or broken,
or faulty.
And though they may not be perfect themselves,
we don’t care.
Because they’re the ones who taught us that perfection is boring.
And even when
their stories end,
we won’t ever forget
what they taught us.
