Brice Murphy

Thank goodness and all that's above for my most awesome friend Brice Murphy. I've only known him for three months now but I've felt we've been friends for longer, almost a lifetime I swear! But, in truth, I've never met anyone like him. I mean the guy is so full of wisdom and smart ideas and he's so up-to-date with his psyche. The great thing about Brice is that, with his great wisdom, he does what he can to use it to help people. You know I don't think I've ever been annoyed by him at all! There is nothing annoying about him. He's just that kind of person who will give someone his full attention and makes them feel good, he's a lot like my uncle. Oh my gosh, and all the times that we've gotten together and just chilled have been the best! I especially love how he is dating my friend Alycia (Cia) because they are just perfect together, they are so great and I don't think they'd find someone better in their high school years.

What I've loved about Brice is how helpful he's been with me. The other week I almost had a meltdown at work and I talked to him for thirty minutes and he just helped to calm me down and figure things out. I didn't enjoy going back to work, but I did feel better; I wasn't as stressed nor upset. To me, Brice is my twin; meaning we're very much alike! Everyday after art class we walk together to meet up with our friends at lunch and we're just arguing the entire way over something ridiculous, but it just goes to show how stubborn we both are. And, I don't know, I'm just happy with Brice there. I guess I've kind of stayed with Tim because of Brice.

And, whatever weird way the universe works in, I feel like I've known Brice for longer than I actually have. I feel like we were actually twins sometime in a past life. Whatever twins we were, I kind of hope we weren't like Selene Cleopatra and Alexander Helios (Cleopatra's children) because Selene lost her brother and I don't want to lose Brice. There's so much life left for him to live and I hope that our paths stay straight and aligned for a long time.

So, thank you, Brice, for helping me and for being my little brother.
