Hello Peoplešāāļø This will be my first time of hopping on @galenkp prompt for Weekend Engagement. I just couldnāt turn a blind eye on this oneš
You can choose to be an only child or have several brothers and sisters, which do you choose and why?
I am the second child of my family and I have two sisters and one brother, when I count my blessings I count them double.
In all honesty I cannot imagine a world without my siblings in it, despite our constant fights and quarrels, they mean the world to me.
Being an only child? no please Iāll pass on that, like who will I pick on? no younger siblings to send on errands? who would do all the house chores? who am I going to hand down all my clothes when they donāt fit anymore? who am I going to lash out on? These are just a tidbit of what my relationship with my siblings look like.
My Eldest Sisterš
Sometimes I feel so bad for people without siblings, how do they cope? I know when youāre an only child you get all the love and attention from your parents but trust me a siblingās love is different. I know how many times I had to stand up for my kid brother and sister when they were treated unjustly, I felt like an hero and trust me I felt so good.
My siblings and I are like a system, we all work together to achieve great things. Currently we are all scattered in different cities but that doesnāt stop us from keeping tabs on each other, we still try to keep up, we always have our long video calls and our group chat? You sure donāt want to go there.
This is meš„°
How Iām I supposed to do a lot of things without them in the picture?
An event occurred earlier this year and it made me to appreciate my siblings even more. Like I said earlier, I and my siblings are scattered in different cities.
In this part of the world we have this sort of tradition where we go to church on the 31st of December from 9pm-12am, we pray to commit the new year into Godās hands and we count down into the New year. Once we are done everyone is so excited to see the new year, you look for your siblings, family or loved ones and you all hug yourselves, dancing and celebrating. So on that day, after the countdown, there I was with my siblings far from reach, no family members or loved ones, everyone was hugging and celebrating the new year with their families, I was all alone in a foreign landš¢ and trust me that got to me big time.
My kid sisterš
So my point is, I canāt see myself being an only child, not in this world or the world to comeš
The bond I share with my siblings is so strong that no matter how many times we fight, we will still come back to each other. It baffles me when I hear people say things like āI hate my brother so much and we donāt talk any moreā or āmy siblings are my problem in life ā. How do people get to the point where they begin to see their siblings as threats?
I pray I and my siblings donāt get to that point.
They are my number one āfansā, there are my first critics, with them I can share everything and anything without being judged or mocked.
My one and only brotherš„°
No matter how many times they annoy me, no matter how crazy they are or crazier they get, I would always choose my siblings over and over again because they are my support system and I couldnāt have asked for more
Thanks for stopping by
