They say when you write, you should keep one or two people in mind, so your voice stays consistent. My dear Farah was the one who inspired me to write this blog, so I write for her (I have found this to be very useful; I have many "voices" and trying to stay consistent is always a challenge because, to put it simply, I'm a crazy person). She knows me and the many sides of my personality well, so she seemed to be the ideal audience. Farah has taught me how to be a good friend; one that is caring, silly, respectful and most of all, thoughtful. She reminds me that being a girl isn't a bad thing, that I should try it almost daily, and that being feminine doesn't mean you're weak, (as I previously thought) often it proves just how strong you are. Farah is the only person I know who's cravings drive her to mango and not chocolate dipped in peanut butter or something else equally as sinful and delicious. She showed me that there is truth behind the old adage, "laughing so hard you pee your pants." Honestly, I've seen her do it, more than once. But it is her genuine love for life that allows her such happiness and today, she celebrates being another year older, and I can only hope, another year happier.
