THANKFUL FOR: YOU’VE GOT A FRIEND IN ME

A couple of weeks ago I heard a song that I forgot how much I love. Today, I randomly remembered it and decided to buy it on iTunes. Growing up, one of my favorite movies was Toy Story. I mean I loved that movie for some reason. I can remember thinking while I was at school my toys must have been having so much fun at home in my room. I can also remember shutting the door to my room and then opening it real quick to see if I could catch my toys having fun. 

In case you didn’t know, Toy Story is about the life toys have when their owners are away. I was just sure my toys were the coolest toys out there. I mean hey I am sure they are having tons of fun at the top of my closet right now. 

Anyways, if you are familiar with the film then you must know the theme song. 
“You’ve Got a Friend in Me” by Randy Newman is just such a great song and I love that I finally remembered to add this song to my playlist today of all days because guess what today is? It’s National Best Friend Day. Now instead of telling you all about all my best friends because trust me I do have some great ones, but I can assure you, you have already heard of them. 

S/o to my best friends for being the best friends I could have ever asked for. You love, encourage, and support me in more ways than I could ever imagine. You all know who you are. I love you and I am thankful for you everyday. You know that! 

I am going to attach the lyrics to this song and I hope you all take a moment to read them. 

You’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you’re miles and miles from your nice warm bed
You just remember what your old pal said
Boy you’ve got a friend in me
Yeah you’ve got a friend in me

You’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me
You got troubles and I got ’em too
There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you
We stick together, we can see it through
‘Cause you’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me

Some other folks might be a little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too
Maybe
But none of them
Will ever love you the way I do
It’s me and you boy

And as the years go by
Our friendship will never die
You’re gonna see it’s our destiny
You’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me

After you read it, call and or text your best friends and remind them that you are thankful for them. Because that is the least you could do on national best friends day. 

Yours Truly,
Southern and Thankful
