I just found out my oldest friend, strike that, my all but sister, died this morning. This is completely out of the blue.
She is er was 5 months older than me.
Paula and I have been friends since 7th grade. 20 years. Who I am is because of her. She loved me for who I was yet pushed me to become the person she knew I wanted and could be.
I've never felt this type of emptiness before.
