Little brother,
To begin, I want you to know that I am very proud of the wonderful young man that you are becoming. You have grown to become a responsible, reputable, and passionate individual, and I am thankful to be your older sister. Without you, I would not be half of the person that I am today.
You may not realize it, but you are wise beyond your years. I wish I had acquired the wisdom that you have when I was your age. I admire that you are not afraid to stand-up and fight for what you believe in. You are willing to go against the crowd in order to maintain your sense of happiness. Everything that you do, you do with passion, hard work, and determination. You do not let anyone’s words or thoughts stop you because you are willing to challenge yourself.
I almost envy you for being such a good kid. You surround yourself with positive people that will leave a huge imprint in your life. You have so much compassion for others. Yes, you do have a good way of hiding it and staying strong, but I can tell when something is bothering you. You are never quick to judge someone or something. Whenever I need advice or to let something off of my chest, I know that I can turn to you because you will give me the advice and answers that I need.
As you continue to grow up, life will challenge you. There will be times you will question yourself and your strength, but please do not lose hope. Continue making me and the rest of the family proud. We understand that you are human and will make mistakes. Learn from your mistakes as you go and if you need help along the way, I will be here to support and guide you. Words cannot describe how happy I am that as we grew up, we were able to create an unbreakable bond. To me, you are more than my little brother. You are my best friend. I love you so much.
