"I Wanna Tell You How Much I Love You"
Seriously, there aren't enough words for me to describe how much i love my friend Kerry.
To keep it short, he's one of the most amazing and decent guys i know.
He's very gentlemanly, loves living life (he says that he doesn't want to live past 25, and that terrifies me a little)...
seriously, i could go on and on (and on and on) about how great he is.
and i don't want to say that we have a part time friendship, because thats not true. We're friends all the time, we just don't talk to each other very often. But when we do, we talk about everything. and i think that's why i think we're such good friends.
He's one of the only people i feel like i can look in the eyes and for it to not be weird. I am just so.. comfortable with him. I can't say i trust him implicitly, because i don't think i trust anyone implicitly, but i trust him a lot. theres just something about him.
i'm not IN love with him. But i DO love him. (more than he loves me i'm pretty sure, but i'm ok with that). I simply adore him. I love hearing him talk about life, because he's so enthusiastic about it.
"Some people live dying. Kerry died living."
that's what he wants me to say at his funeral. He was joking, kinda. It wasn't a morbid conversation. He was all, 25 is OLD. I don't wanna be alive past 25. so i kinda yelled at him and he said you have to say something at my funeral.
which made me laugh. he wants me to say something at his funeral. So we joked and i called him James Dean. I think he said that he wanted me to remember him when i was old and be all, i remember that young handsome Kerry who was so full of life.
So i told him i'd always remember him that way.
However, his plan to die around 25 is in conflict with his plan to buy a boat in like 10 years and take a 5 year trip around the world in his boat (which i'm supposed to join him in for at least a small section).
so i'm not too worried.
Also? I was planning on going to Tofino sometime in my life, and he's apparently going to be there for 3 weeks this year. So i'll probably meet up with him and we'll hang out then.
Seriously, seeing Kerry makes me feel... so much better about a lot of things. He's like this... this bright energy that re-energizies my spirit for things. He's got this great outlook on life and its kind of catching. Not that i would ever go snowboarding and go off cliffs and stuff like that... but like... he reminds me of that inspirational thing - "Do one thing a day that scares you". he's all about getting over his fears and stuff. whereas i am the Queen of Avoidance and Denial.
he's so bright, and not just intellectually. he's an out-going introvert.
i think i have one other friendship like ours.
