Siblings...you gotta love them. They're the younger or older pain in the butt you're related to and have to live with for at least a few years of your life. I know a lot of people who complain about their siblings; people who say that they always fight with them or never agree with them. When I hear these things, I think, "wow, I really lucked out." Not only is my sister the most amazing person ever, she's also my best friend.
Woah! A sibling, a best friend? That can be a hit or miss, but I'm going to brag and say that my sister's the best. She's one of the people I can most rely on when I'm feeling depressed and need a shoulder to cry on or someone to talk to. She randomly texts me the sweetest messages checking up on me and making sure that school is going OK and I'm OK. I know I can spill my heart and soul to her and she'll hold all my secrets near and dear to her heart.
Being in college, it's hard to be without my best friend every day. When I go back to my dorm, it's hard to not see her there. But we talk all the time and it's great to have someone to vent to and have by my side, even though we're in different states for a majority of the time.
We weren't always like this, though. We had our handful of fights growing up, mostly about silly things, but they could be brutal. We would tattle on each other, like siblings do, call each other stupid, which was a really bad word to call someone back in the day...and not really connect on many levels.
However, all of that changed a few years ago. Something between us clicked and now we're best friends. There's no doubt in my mind that she'll be my maid of honor if I ever get married, and the godmother to one of my kids. I'm so blessed to have such an amazing person in my life to lift me up and be my rock. I'm not sure she knows how much she really means to me, but she truly means the world to me and I'd honestly be lost without her.
Nug, when you said that you were my double rainbow, I want you to know that I'm yours too. I may not always be clearly there, but know I have your back and am always supporting you. You can come to me with anything and I will help you. I will be forever by your side.
I love you, Nug.
