Dear Izzy,
Happy 15th Birthday!! Omgg welcome to the 15 year old’s club! Hehe you’re so old now!
I’ve known you for 3 years now, and time has flown by so quickly. It seems like yesterday that we were Year 7’s playing soccer on the oval together for sport.
I’ve honestly loved getting to know you, and you always make every moment together so iconic and memorable. Thanks for all those deep, philosophical talks at 8:30am, swooning over The 100 and The Maze Runner characters with me, and overall, just making me smile and giving me great pieces of advice.
If there’s one thing you’ve taught me, it’s that nothing is permanent. It’s scary to know that everything we are going through right now is temporary. Yeah, the sadness and the pain will go away, but so will the people who you love and care for.
Knowing this now, I’ve realised how much of the world passes you by just like that, and I don’t want you to make the same mistake. I hope you find the light in each and every day of the rest of your life, and that you will take every opportunity that comes your way. The world may seem slow now, but before you know it, it’ll be over. I don’t want you to regret the things you did in the past, and instead, learn from your mistakes and move on.
I hope 15 treats you like the amazing queen that you are, and don’t ever stop smiling! Your smile literally lights up the room, and I really appreciate your little jokes and beautiful hugs. I really hope you find your own true sense of happiness, and make choices that’ll benefit you and make you happy! Thank you again for everything you’ve done for me, and just being such a wonderful person in my life! I love you sooooo much Izzy!!! <3
Love from Lian xoxo
