My life would suck without [all of] you

You probably know me well enough by now to know I like the little things.
Today got progressively better, mostly thanks to those people who helped me out yesterday.
I made a (certainly not finished) list of things that could make anyone's day.
1) Cereal - who doesn't love some good Apple Jacks?
2) A book - you could change their life or perspective forever, or you could just save them from boredom at some point... unless it's ungodly boring.
3) Advice/reassurance
4) A high five
5) A hug - arms around you just feel secure.
6) A kiss

Life is built on a lot of things.
Where would you be without a best friend
Or a sister who finishes your sentences?
But at the same time,
Where would you be without strangers you drive by every day,
Foreign faces in any given place.
Where would you be without those places you love,
Where you feel at home?
But where would you be without the unknown,
The middle of nowhere,
Lost in a sea of skyscrapers?
Where would you be without sunshine,
Without raindrops?
Without music,
Without silence?
Without stress,
Without relaxation?
Nothing would be defined.
Everything would be a blur, unclear.
A mixed message.
You have taught me to be patient,
And you have shown me being impatient
Can bring you what you want.
You have understood the importance of writing,
But you have given me moments
Where thought-out words would fail.
You have let me see that waiting for something
Helps make it even better when it actually happens.

I LOVE SUNFLOWERS
