My best female friend's name is Precious. Precious and I are very close friends. I have known her for the past 23 years now. Precious met me through another mutual friend. I arrived at Precious's house one week before Labor Day of 1999. This is also when I started writing essays for a class that I was enrolled in at UNCC.

 

Precious, I want to wish you a Happy Birthday today. This is for you. You are a Christian Woman who is always willing to help other people. Precious, you are a very intelligent woman. You are a very special person. You were willing to help me when I was at my lowest point in my life. I want to say Thank you for your friendship. Your friendship means a lot to me. You are a gifted person. For the past 23 years, you have listened to me vent about numerous things.

 Precious, I really enjoy our time together because I have learned how to become a mature man. I have learned a whole lot from you. It is my honor to wish you many more birthdays.

Precious, I love you as my best friend forever. I know when I left Charlotte, NC on January 5, 2010; I cried the entire time I was on the Greyhound bus headed back home. I guess I was running away from my problems. You are a Christian Woman who has Christ like features. You will make a very good therapist.

You are so smart that you were right about one thing: That black coffee is like taking water pills.   I almost had an accident in my clothes. You know something, I suffer from diabetes and incontinence. You are right about taking Zyprexa. It increases your appetite. I weigh 295 pounds right now. You are right about everything that I am going through now. You have an above average IQ.

 I have an above average IQ myself. Thank you for being there for me. You and my niece Ryan are gifted. I'm gifted in different ways. Precious, I am going to enjoy coming back to Charlotte NC. I should not have left the city because you need me more than ever before.

Precious I need a job. If you want you to save me some money again, I will appreciate it. I always understood you. God Fearing People are special to me. You are right about one thing that I have a Spiritual Discernment. If I would have stayed in Charlotte NC thing's would have never happened.

 I am very happy to have a second chance at coming back to Charlotte NC because we can help each other. We have a Partnership together.  I love you very much. Please keep this information forever. I miss all of you.

 I am very sorry for hurting you in any way. I know that I can be stubborn at times myself. I am very honest with God and Mankind. Good is inside of us. We are only a vapor that only lasts for a short time.  Psalms 144:4 says Man is like a breath, his days are like a passing shadow. Happy Birthday to my beautiful friend Precious.
