Storm River Rise

love you always

These are the 18 Reasons Why I Love Ben (Stormriver) for his 18th Birthday! :~)

And b/c I had technical difficulties the end of the video had to get cut off  (& that's also why this is posted really early) so here's the continued reasons with a little bit more detail:

reason #14 he's mature. and since ive started talking to him ive been amazed that we're not the same age and im older than him. he seems to handle situations better than most adults that i know and im proud of him because most ppl never reach a certain maturity level. i mean he's still young and beautiful but he's still mature enough

reason #15 he gives great advice. i think ive read somewhere that ppl who give great advice arent perfect. they can give great advice because they've struggled themselves maybe in a similar area in which they are advising. that makes me kinda sad since the advice he's given me has helped me during a depressing time and i dont like thinking about my friends including ben being sad before during or after they've become friends with me even tho i know it happens obviously. im just grateful that i can talk to him and he can offer help like a good friend.

reason #16 so this is getting a little more personal. he saved my life on many accounts and im not saying like a singer who's songs have helped me through dark times "saved my life" even though technically he does fit in that category. im saying he was such a great friend that he taught me to finally love myself enough where i didnt want to hurt myself anymore.

reason #17 he's my best friend and he'll always be an influential part of my life b/c he's one of the reasons im still here. and i love him so much and this isnt just me stanning. this is me just being happy he's in my life and i get a chance to talk to him and im glad ive gotten to know him before stormriver and throughout his whole journey

reason #18 it's his birthday so you all should tell him happy birthday because he's now 18. yay!
