Nirali's Blog
(Read this first)
This made me feel soooo proud of you nilli, i loved this post and i love exactly who you are. 17 year old nilli was the one constant thing in my life anchoring me to be everything i was, could be and am today.
I loved 17 year old nillis dressing style because it reminded me that not all of us had to dress like what was in seventeen magazine or wear the latest new shoes. It reminded me that it was okay to have your own style - to be different from what was popular. I loved 17 year old nillis trust and vulnerability to people because it reminded me that there were still genuine people out there just wanting to meet people, befriend people and just enjoy life believing that everyone had good intentions. Something that at that time and still to this day is very very hard to find.
I loved 17 year old nillis naivety because it reminded me that innocence and a pure clean mind is something to be treasured not mocked. I loved 17 year old nillis fascination with boys lol because it reminded me to be more honest with myself and that not everyone is perfect but you can still like someone just because they make you happy. It reminded me that we may not always make the best decision with boys but that no matter what our friends will always be there to pick us back up.
I love 17 year old nilli because she taught me exactly everything i needed to know to be exactly where i am and who i am today - someone i love and can completely accept. I love 17 year old nilli because through her trials i learned many important lessons in life. I love 17 year old nilli because she can write this blog expressing her vulnerabilities and end it standing on top - proud of who she was and is today. I love 17 year old nilli because through her friendship i learned what real friendship means - something i had a really hard time finding.
And most of all I love 17 year old nilli because she was and will ever still be my very best friend - my huswife - my sister - my half of a whole.
Thank you 17 year old nilli for being who you were and going through what you did because you've given me the greatest gift because of it. I wish i could have reassured you that back then.

We have been through so much together and i cherish every moment of it. From dragging each other on adventures, meeting weird ass people, long ass talks on the phone - during sleep overs, calling each other at 3am because we needed someone, fighting through the same trials both in health and in life, crying together over broken hearts, encouraging each other to continue doing our best, annoying everyone cause we're so cheesy, getting lost all the time, and just getting ourselves into stupid situations.
You know i always tell you you're too hard on yourself (and you are!) but I also admire the high expectations you set for yourself. That passion of yours to always do your best is inspiring. This may be be one of your weaknesses as well as one of your strengths.
Love You.
You're beautiful, smart, kind, genuine and absolutely amazing and don't ever forget that
