Every time I hear the song "Just the Way You Are" by Bruno Mars I think of how sweet it would be to have someone sing those lyrics to me (especially a guy) but then I think, "He sounds like he's singing about my best friend." Even though she frustrates me sometimes I will always love her and think these things about her because they are absolutely true!
The beautiful things about my best friend Teah...
Eyes-they are an inviting brownish green color but when she cries they turn bright green like the grass and the best part is they can see everything about me and still love just pours from them
Hair-though it's crazy it make her exactly who she is, it's so thick and smooth you just have to pick it up and play with it or run your fingers through her curls
Humble-she loves to get compliments because it validates that she is beautiful but she is not vain, when people tell her she is beautiful she quickly thanks them then turns it around and picks out features about them to compliment
Smile-it is so ready especially for others and though it has a little more "bling" than normal it is bright and cheery and freely given
Lips-though I have no romantic thoughts whatsoever about her, her lips are always gracious and clean, no foul language and always a good thing to say about people
Laugh-like the smile always ready and even though she gets embarrassed because it is sometimes obnoxious it makes her feel better every time and you can't help but laugh along with her
And now my own additions-
Arms-though they hyper extend at the elbows and it looks weird they are the most loving arms, always helping people who can't do for themselves and never failing to show love to those in need, sometimes I just have to cry because I want to rest in those arms so badly but can't because we are miles apart
Feet-long and somewhat skinny they get in the way sometimes (especially the toes) but they run to help and jump with joy when celebrating with a friend, they are beautiful because she uses them for the glory of the Lord
Heart-though not always sure her heart is always open to others and she never withholds love from anyone (she just can't help it)
My best friend Teah is beautiful in so many ways I can't name them all but I hope I can show how much I love and appreciate her. Some say you don't appreciate the things you have until they're gone and I couldn't imagine not having her so I'm going to be thankful for her every day of my life. :)
