Drabble Challenge #9 [Alternate]

Prompt: impressions

You helped me believe in myself again
Convincing me that what I wanted mattered

You brought the spirit of play back into my life
Allowing my neglected ‘inner child’ to run free

You sharpened my creative abilities
Competing with you made me try harder

You gave me an accepting love
I could be all of ‘me,’ without fear of ridicule

You knew yourself and what you wanted from life
And showed me that ‘self-possession’ isn’t the same as ‘selfish’

You showed me by your example
Knowing you has left a permanent impression on my life

Thank you, my dear friend
