A Note To My Brother

I know it seems tough now, it will be better

A Note To My Brother

My brother,

I know it seems like the world is falling in on you. I know how awful high school can be, I was way more awkward than you. I know the same struggles, but I know you can get through it stronger than me. I know there are different people telling you to do different things, and you don't know who to listen to. I know because I felt it too. I felt the pressure and the fear of letting people down. And you will let someone down, it's inevitable. The one person who you shouldn't let down is yourself. Do what you want to do, not what people want you to do. Stay within yourself. And I also know how scary a new school and new people can be, and I now know I did everything wrong. Don't wait for people to come to you. Be adventurous and brave. Do what might make you a little uncomfortable because it might lead to good things. Don't just hide in your room like me. Find the people that you can rely on to make you happy. That could be a classmate, a teammate, a teacher, or a coach; as long as you find your person, you will be fine. Don't forget about me. I know I might seem like I'm too busy for you, but I will always find the time in my day to help you. I can also say the same goes for everyone else in our family. You're not a burden you are a gift and we all love you more than you can even imagine. Just remember, if I did everything wrong and still made it and am happy today, you can do everything write and be even happier.

We Love You

Your Sister

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
