It's DaddyDev's 21st birthday today and I have decided to post this very lovely letter for him which has also been included in the Dev Tribute created by Hash and coreyants.
Dev,
I just want to wish you a very happy 21st birthday and say that you are an amazing friend. I truly appreciate you and all that you're about. I love that you are unafraid to be passionate and bold about life even though others interpret you as being a narcissistic psychopath. I also love that you are determined to find adventure in every moment of every day that you are alive. You may come across as rough around the edges, but you are a true diamond in the rough and deserve nothing but success and happiness. My favourite thing about you is your desire to fight for what you want until you get it even if it drives others up the wall, as you know your passionate attitude will have that effect and you don't give a fetch. I highly respect that you don't care about what others think and you live by your own code of ethics with pride in yourself even if people threaten to disown you for what you believe. I am grateful to have met you and that we are currently friends; my life would most definitely be empty without your presence in it. I know we have personality clashes quite often because of my ignorance and your lack of patience in my kookiness, but I am actually quite fond of you.
