Today is my college roommate's birthday. Like other birthday tribute posts, this post is dedicated to my college roommate and the coincidence that brought us together; one of the best bits of coincidence to ever happen.
I could go on and on about about how wonderful my college roommate was and is, so I'll just try to stick to the main point; sometimes life brings someone into your life that you're not expecting who turns out to be a lifelong friend that you trust completely.
I'm a very lucky person to have this experience with my friend. She has always been a voice of reason; calming and reassuring. She's always had a wicked sense of humor. She is kind, smart and practical. She is the calm in the storm who has overcome a few obstacles and gone on to find the love of her life. She knows how to survive gracefully.
I am forever in her debt, though I'm sure she has no idea to what degree and all the reasons that I hold her in my heart forever. She's just better than anyone I imagined would walk into our dorm room that day. I'm a very lucky person because I got to live with her, travel with her, hang out with her, and keep in touch with her throughout all these years. I hope everyone has at least one friend like this in their lives.
