Grateful for my best friend via /r/gratitude

We met in high school at 15 years old and our friendship is approaching 30 years! Even though we live 1,000 miles away, we are still very close. Our lives have thrown a lot of the same bad stuff at us at the same time, and we’ve both supported each other through so much. We’re always the first to hear of the other’s good news, too. I knew she was pregnant for months before anyone else! What an honor. I feel so lucky to have my best friend.
