A letter to the friends of my ex-next-door neighbor’s friends’ friends

First of all, I just need to say how much you all mean to me. Nothing anyone will ever say or do can every change how I feel about you guys. 

Whoever is the friend of your friends’ friends’ next-door neighbor now-a-days is one lucky duck. I can tell you right now that he doesn’t appreciate you the way that he should.

Right now, he doesn't appreciate that one time that he saw you all pulling out of his next-door neighbors driveway, just barely missing his mailbox while waving to him. He’s never going to appreciate it until you all are long gone. He’ll never realize how much you all meant to him until his next-door neighbor became his ex-next-door neighbor. I know that’s how I feel.

Things change, life goes on. People leave, because they move to different houses. But people never forget those that have made an impact on them. The life that I experienced with you all is unlike anything I will ever experience again. 

Although our time together was short, it was powerful. I can surely say that I have been changed for the better by knowing you, friends of my ex-next-door neighbor’s friend’s friends. All I can say is that I pray you feel the same way.
