Sisters... Do you know how precious they are? When we get cute little precious beans in our arms do you really know what that Siblings... Do you know how precious they are? When we get cute little precious beans in our arms do you really know what the means? It's a huge responsibility... You become an older one. You have to teach them the difference between wrong and right. You've protected them from every possible bad thing that could happen. You've to become a role model for them..... Really?

Or maybe not

    You should just be the way you're. You should cherish her.  Don't teach them what's wrong and right. Just make them aware and let them see it themselves. Don't try to protect them just be there for them when they needed. Don't be their role model just be their friend whom they can rely on when they get into problems. And in return you will get a beautiful bonding…most important you’ll find a friend who you can always count on.

Let me share with you a short story about sisters

    Mina and Nina are two sisters.  Mina is the older one while Nina is the younger. They both live in a village.  They're all orphans and all alone. Mina is 15 years old and Nina is 10.

   They're all by themselves. They can only rely on each other. Mina always tried to protect her sister. She worked in a small shop so they don't get much time to interact. But they know they love each other.

   But Nina is disturbed these days cause she always has to listen that her sister is fairer than her... Why is she so dark while his sister is fair. Those words always sting on her heart but she really never shares it with anyone, not even her sister. Time passes they become distant. Mina can sense it but she doesn't know what to do. She tried to ask Nina what's the matter but the little girl just ignored her. She is little...she is jealous...she is angry...doesn't know what to do.

    One day Mina suggests they should go shopping for her new clothes...Nina agreed to go. When they're at the shopping market... An aunty came to them and started to say.

  'Hi, Mina you're so fair and good girl where is your sister isn't... You know she was so dark and rude  that's why no one likes her .'

  Mina nodded her head negatively then spoke 'She is more beautiful than you can imagine. And aunty I think you should change your glasses or should talk with your doctor there is something wrong with your eyes.' She politely told the woman and went away holding her sister's hand. She can hear her giggle.

They shopped anything they like and got back home.

Later in the bed, Mina asked Nina while caressing his sister's head smoothly...

'Nina from when they're saying those things to you? Is this why you're behaving strangely these days? 'The little girl just nodded while sniffing a little.

'They're so mean Mina.  I don't like them’

Mina just wipe her tears...put a little kiss on her forehead and said

'Remember one thing my sister you're beyond beautiful in my eyes no one can beat your beauty. You're just perfect the way you are. Don't ever be afraid of yourself'

They become close again... All the misunderstandings become clear.

Both grew up well. Mina is 24 and Nina 19. Nina becomes a charming, attractive, and confident girl who can do whatever she likes. While with time passes Mina becomes insecure, introverted, anxious. She panicked in every little hard situation doesn't know why. Her insecurities are growing day by day.  Even sometimes she envious of her sister.  She knows it's nothing to envy but she can't control her feelings.  The older one always tried to copy her sister to become attractive...but nothing happens. Again they become distant. Mina was so confused these days she can't find any solution. So getting frustrated Mina always picked a fight with Nina without any reason. Nina noticed that so one day when Mina arguing with her Nina yelled 'should I just leave this house sister? '

Mina doesn't give any answer instead he broke down with tears...' I'm confused Nina I don't want that. I don't want to envy you but I can't help it. Everyone is so attracted and liked you. Nobody likes to talk to me. I don't know sometimes I wanted to be like you '

Nina went to his sister patted her head

'How can you forget Mina? You told me to be myself. That I'm perfect the way I'm then so you're... You don't need to be me or copy me. Just stay the way you are. If anyone likes you they need to accept you. You don't need to change Mina. You're still my beautiful sister. '

Mina sobbed harder said sorry to Nina for her behavior.

 

 

 

That's how Mina and Nina help each other in their hard time. They understand that they're strong together. They're not perfect... They can't be... Maybe they'll fight too in the future. But they know they can always rely on each other. And if one got stuck at a point the other will always be there by their side....help them to find a way out.
