Troubled times

Sometimes

you just need

a hand to hold

- and sisters know when...

You can turn up

on a sister's doorstep

at any time

and in any state

and be sure of

a cup of tea

and a listening ear

... and a bed

if it's really bad...

Who would I turn to

in a dire emergency

but you ?

When the sky falls in,

a sister will

lend you an...

Do You Remember ?

Do you remember:

whisperings in the dark ?

the secrets ?

the schemes ?

the gigglings ?

and quiet tears ?

paddings from bed to bed ?


Do you remember:

Christmas mornings -

I've got a doll,

You've got a bear,

I've got a harmonica.

Do you remember:

padding around the kitchen

in the dawn-light,

getting Dad's birthday...
I am uncertain that I will find her there,

The hurt feelings do come and then I need to stop

take a breathe, pause,

the pain of losing her is still there,

being poked at, not torn open

like when I was first told

and then the numbing shock

and the wanting to die

because I had failed

both her and her son.

It is like what I said in my...

Sisters

A sister

knows more about you

than anyone else on earth...

Her past

is the same territory

as your own.

You both know

every path,

every stream,

every turn in the road...

How good it is

to have someone

who accepts me as I am

A mother's love is a little blind.

A sister's....

Sisters know

why you are as you are.

We...

A SISTER....

A sister is

someone to experiment on,

someone to comfort,

someone to scold.


A sister borrows just about everything you possess

- and sometimes gives things back.


A sister tells on you to your parents.

A sister accidently lets out secrets....

A sister gets away with things

you don't or never could

A sister turns to you when...

A sister is ...

A SISTER IS ...

Some one to tell my secrets.

Some one to share my adventures.

Someone to show my acquistions.

Someone to stick up for me

Someone to take care of.

Someone who will be there

in times of fear or sickness

and in times of joy

interfere,

in huffs,

in snide remarks, :glare:

but sisters are your second self.

and if castrophe should strike,

Bonded

We had our own lives

and in some ways are so very different

- but some things we share

- influences, ancestors, experiences,

family jokes, family habits,

memories of grief and joy, secrets.

We understand each other

- a little too well.

We are inclined at times

to smile or sigh and say

"Only she could do a thing like that....

Somewhere

How very lonely

the world would seem

if one didn't know

one's sister was around

- somewhere

Sister Wishes

June 30 2007

May these wishes keep

coming true....

I WANT US....

to always be so close....

to share everything,

with nothing ever coming between us...

to trust and talk things out...

to be assured,

even when no one else knows what's going on inside...

that we will gently understand....

And wherever you go,

you will be in my...

What is a Sister ?

A sister is someone

more special than words...

She is love mixed with friendship

and a million memories

that will always last.



A sister is

a hand within your hand

enfolded with love and understanding.

She gives a feeling

that makes you wonder

what you would ever do without her,

and no one is loved so dearly.


FOR A WONDERFUL...

MY BABY SISTER

She was born at home

I wrote a story about her birth in grade 8

I am not in the photos of her homecoming from the hospital

She is in the photo for big brother's 5th birthday she is less tha a month old

She is in a Christmas photo; she is less than 2 months old; mom is holding her and one of my toy dolls


She is in the photos for baby...

shoulder to shoulder

When sisters stand

shoulder to shoulder,

who stands a chance

against us ?

Pam Brown

A sister

What's the good of news,

if you haven't a sister

to share it ?

Jenny Devries
Vanessa Bell


You can't think

how I depend on you,

and when you're not there

the color goes out of my life.
We know each other

as we always were

We know each other's hearts

We share private family jokes.

We remember Family feuds and secrets,

family griefs and joys.


We live outside the touch of time.


Clara Ortega
A sister, it seems,

has extrasensory perception.

When you hurt,

she feels your pain.

When you're happy,

she shares your joy.

When you're frightened,

she understands.......

and a sister has a special advantage...

she can hear the hidden fear in your voice

that no one else can hear.

She can see

the masked sadness on your...
My mother

taught me

the importance of

staying close to family.

IF YOU CAN'T

TAKE YOUR SISTER

WITH YOU,

YOU'RE NOT GOING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Laura Randolph Lancaster
shining back at you

with a world of possibilities.

She is your witness,

who sees you

at your worst and best,

and loves you anyways.

She is your partner in crime,

your midnight companion,

someone who knows

when you are smiling in the dark.

She is....

your teacher,

your defense attorney,

your personal press agent,

even your...

Sisters

If you don't understand

how a woman

could both

love her sister dearly

and want to scream at her at the same time,

then you were probably an only child

About my blog

This is basically my space to spill out everything I'm thinking and feeling.

Please note that some of the content here may be triggering.

What I write here is just me being honest with myself. Mostly just venting about things, realisations, and my path through healing.

There will be talk of CSA, SA, R, SI and ED here.
