What is a friend?

A friend is someone who gives you hugs.



A friend is someone who will get up at 5:30 in the morning with you just to watch the sunset.



A friend is someone who helps you dig a sand spur out of your foot.

A friend is someone who will climb up a giant sand dune with you...

Just so they can jump back down. Then climb back up and do it again.

A friend is someone who will put on a skin tight wetsuit just so they can swim in the 50 degree ocean water for 30 minutes, then get out and struggle for 20 minutes to get the wetsuit off.

A friend is someone who will pose in front of an old outhouse with you.



A friend is someone you can laugh with for hours on end.



A friend is someone who will run on the beach with you.




A friend is someone who will get out of the warm, wind-less car and mess up their hair so you can all get a picture on a giant chair together.



I miss being in North Carolina with my best friends.
