For a special guy like you

I usually don't write in English and I usually don't write for someone specific, but, because today is your birthday and you are a very special person to me, I'm going to make an exception.

When I first met you, I never thought that our friendship will grow so much. Last year, basically, last semester I found in you a very good friend, someone in which I could put my entirely trust and for that, I'm so thankful.

Because this is some public space, I don't want to get into much details but, I want to do something special and different for you this day. Why?

1.- It's your first birthday since we became good friends.
2.- I can't be with you this day because we're separated by 822.550 km
3.- And I know that isn't a great time to celebrate a birthday

So, your gift? A space ALWAYS in my heart, in my mind and in my life, and of course a little something that I write for you and it goes like this:

When you find someone so special for you, someone that completes you in so many ways, someone that helps you, listen to you, support you, encourage you to go ahead, believes in you and that you know that always will have honest words for you, is when you realize that you have found a friend.
For me, you are that and more. Friendship is not based only on receiving and receiving, but in giving and be thankful for that. And even sometimes one of the parts gives more than the other, the little that is received it is thankful.
I'm not ashamed in telling you how much I love you, and how thankful I am with God and with life because they have crossed our paths. And if I could ask for anything, it will be health, happiness and love for you always.

Thanks for being my friend till now, I hope that this friendship still growing and growing. I love you ... and I miss you.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY DEAREST FRIEND! Kisses & hugs for you in this day.

Entrada sin título...

The sun was shining on the sea,
Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright --
And this was odd, because it was
The middle of the night.

The moon was shining sulkily,
Because she thought the sun
Had got no business to be there
After the day was done --
"It's very rude of him," she said,
"To come and spoil the fun!"

The sea was wet as wet could be,
The sands were dry as dry.
You could not see a cloud, because
No cloud was in the sky:
No birds were flying over head --
There were no birds to fly.

The Walrus and the Carpenter
Were walking close at hand;
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of sand:
"If this were only cleared away,
"They said, "it would be grand!"

"If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year,
Do you suppose," the Walrus said,
"That they could get it clear?"
"I doubt it," said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.

"O Oysters, come and walk with us!
"The Walrus did beseech."
A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk,
Along the briny beach:
We cannot do with more than four,
To give a hand to each."

The eldest Oyster looked at him.
But never a word he said:
The eldest Oyster winked his eye,
And shook his heavy head --
Meaning to say he did not choose
To leave the oyster-bed.

But four young oysters hurried up,
All eager for the treat:
Their coats were brushed, their faces washed,
Their shoes were clean and neat --
And this was odd, because, you know,
They hadn't any feet.

Four other Oysters followed them,
And yet another four;
And thick and fast they came at last,
And more, and more, and more --
All hopping through the frothy waves,
And scrambling to the shore.

The Walrus and the Carpenter
Walked on a mile or so,
And then they rested on a rock
Conveniently low:
And all the little Oysters stood
And waited in a row.

"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes -- and ships -- and sealing-wax --
Of cabbages -- and kings --
And why the sea is boiling hot --
And whether pigs have wings."

"But wait a bit," the Oysters cried,
"Before we have our chat;
For some of us are out of breath,
And all of us are fat!"
"No hurry!" said the Carpenter.
They thanked him much for that.

"A loaf of bread," the Walrus said,
"Is what we chiefly need:
Pepper and vinegar besides
Are very good indeed --
Now if you're ready Oysters dear,
We can begin to feed."

"But not on us!" the Oysters cried,
Turning a little blue,"
After such kindness, that would be
A dismal thing to do!"
"The night is fine," the Walrus said
"Do you admire the view?

"It was so kind of you to come!
And you are very nice!"
The Carpenter said nothing but"
Cut us another slice:
I wish you were not quite so deaf --
I've had to ask you twice!"

"It seems a shame," the Walrus said,
"To play them such a trick,
After we've brought them out so far,
And made them trot so quick!"
The Carpenter said nothing but"
The butter's spread too thick!"

"I weep for you," the Walrus said.
"I deeply sympathize.
"With sobs and tears he sorted out
Those of the largest size.
Holding his pocket handkerchief
Before his streaming eyes.

"O Oysters," said the Carpenter.
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?"
But answer came there none --
And that was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.'
