2 V = Better than You

Humans are interesting creatures…interestingly disappointing creatures. We are made up of many layers and what you see is NOT what you always get. This of course can be a good or bad realization depending on the person.
I for instance come with many different faces…most of which are busy criticizing and analyzing personalities I cross paths with so that I can create little profiles in my memory bank and refer back to it when necessary.
One of the profiles in my memory bank is of one of those most fascinating people I have been lucky to know for years now. She comes with many layers…just like the rest of us, but what makes her post-worthy? I can’t find a flaw in her layers… that’s not to say that she doesn’t make mistakes…it’s just with her, what you see IS what you get…and when you see her and get to know her, you can’t help but want other people to be able to do the same.
Being the author of PrettyObsessed its no surprise I have pretty friends seeing how I’m obsessed with ‘All Things Pretty’ so she is in no way “Mrs. Personality.” She is beautiful on the outside…but it is her heart that I am obsessed with, if everyone can see the world through her eyes; we really would be living in a better place.
She loves people …and by love I mean real accepting love, no other type exists for her. It’s as though she is attracted to each person’s soul. One of the few people I know who sees the body as an exterior shell and nothing more. So it’s no surprise that she has lots of friends, lots of good friends…from many different walks of life. And one of her favorite things to do is mesh these good people all together. Unlike other people (myself included) who prefer to keep their groups of friends separate for no other reason than because I assume that they may not all get along if they met, awkwardness will ensue and I rather just have a good time than worry about what everyone is feeling. Her on the other hand gets full satisfaction by bringing people she loves together, and she is good at it…and without fail everyone gets along great and you walk away with more friends than you came with.
Anyone who is friends with this girl knows that she is completely devoted and loyal to you, and she plays the best friend role with such ease and poise that its almost easy to overlook how much thought she probably does put into everyone she cares about.
She is a refreshing mix of many different things, and can in no way be described accurately. She’s a walking contradiction in the most pleasant way.
A feminine-tomboy. Odd mix of emotions and practicality. Aggressively sweet. Small in size with a huge heart. She is threateningly beautiful, but her aura welcomes connection. She is critical, yet forgiving. Honest and sensitive. An easy-going stickler, who can nip you with her temper when she feels crossed…but be the first to hug you when you are down in the dumps. Compassionate, understanding, feisty, independent in some ways, but dependant on the ones she loves… funny and understated. I think she deserves an award for being a great friend to so many people for so many years…We never asked her to be there, she just is…
So, as the year comes to an end once again I am thankful for having you in mi vida Ms. 2V.
Oh and …I hope it’s okay that I took a picture of you off Facebook and used it for this post…I knew you’d understand.
