Sister

Carol blur blur hit the car's bumper yesterday & I accompanied her to the mechanic this morning. She passed a fantastic remark while we were walking under the rain with 2 huge umbrellas - she behind me. She said, paraphrased, "So funny! It takes us to be in these kind of situation for us to go out and spend time together."

It really brought a smile to my face the whole day. Each time I think about it, automatically, I will smile.

My sister is someone I love dearly. Many times, I enjoy the little moments I have with her over meals or car ride or even just lying on her bed watching TV with her at her PC. My sister will always tell you that when she was young, I hit her on her head thus I am smarter than her. However, as kids, I really do not know what I was doing. Hahaha!!! As kids, I only know that I am the elder sister and I have a duty to take care of the younger one.

Now as adults, with her married & preparing for wedding, with me busy with my own life, we basically lead very separate lives. Suddenly, the responsibility as an elder sister has diminished as the younger one has also learned how to lead her life. And that's when positions in family matters no more & "friendship" may take over. Somehow, it does warms me when I know that when she is in trouble, she calls me first. Haaaa... Hopefully no more next time though.
