The Sister I've Always Wanted

You’re not only my sister-in-law, but my best friend.

The Sister I've Always Wanted
Zoe Neilson

Ever since I was little, I've always wanted a sister. Someone who could teach me about how to do my makeup, talk boys and go shopping with. I’ve always wanted a “girl’s opinion” and someone to tell me I’m not crazy; even if I am. A sister that had my back and someone to always be there for me. Well, I’m the luckiest person alive, because I got her.

You came into my life at the perfect time. I needed a friend, and even though I may not have liked you at first, I know that I love you now. Not only did you bring light and joy into my life, but into my family’s life, and my brother’s. For in the years to come, I needed you more than ever. I needed my sister.

After all that had happened and every last word that was spoken, you stayed by my side. You protected me and lifted me up because honestly, you were the only one I’d listen to. You are amazingly kind and your empathetic heart made you so easy to relate to and rely on for comfort. You got me through some of my darker days, and now have helped make me into the person I am today. Thank you, for being the positive role-model and optimistic driving force in my life.

The biggest thing you gave me was the concept of sisterhood. Through your devotion to me and your love of your sorority. It showed me what it meant to not only be a friend but a sister. You showed me the importance of sticking to things, and not giving up. Even when things were hard, you showed courage and perseverance.

Now, after over more than a decade, you are still the best sister I could have ever asked for. Though we aren’t blood, we are family, and that means more to me than anything. You’re not only my sister-in-law but my best friend. I always know that I’ll be able to lean on you to weather any storm.

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.

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.
