There are certain people that come into your life who are meant to stay a while, or just briefly. Either way, I do not believe we meet anyone by mistake. Well, tomorrow, one of these special people is moving on to another chapter, and although work will not be the same, she has become so much more than just a co-worker in our short time together.
It didn’t take long to realize we would friends shortly after I started working. She would spin her chair around as she was browsing fashion and lifestyle stories while working on her section of the newspaper. We would also compare playlists and talk everything from Hozier, dating and feminism. The days I’ll miss most are the ones where we would be midday at work and she would forward emails to me about travel destinations, and most of the time she could even suggest places to go because she has traveled all over. She has taught me how to be patient, but most importantly, she taught me the importance of being independent.
