Sisters

What can we say about sisters. They are noisy, stupid (sometimes), lazy, beautiful, the best friend, jerks, but you'll always love them. You'll die for them.

I have two sisters; Vicky and Paula. Paula is seventeen but she looks like 22. She is a scary girl who doesn't really know what to do in this world. Vicky is 8 and she is in Neverland all the time. That's just cool. Keep on living your childhood Vicky.
Vicky is only a child and there is not much I can say about her. She is just a beautiful girl with great mind and imagination. Sometimes, she comes up with the funniest jokes. She is just great, but I seriously think we'll never have the same connection as I have with Paula.
Paula is different. She is so hard to deal with and most of the times we don't get alone. Sometimes I hate her and she hates me back, but they say "the only way you can hate somebody is because you love her or him so much". I guess that's true! I love my sister and that's probably why I don't want her to mess up. But she is good seed. She doesn't drink, smoke or go to parties at all. She is a clean girl. The only problem is that she doesn't know what to do with her life. Paula wants to study in the University, but does not know what. I have to say that many times she has asked my help and I haven't helped her. I feel bad about that but I think she has to start now dealing with her own life and managing it. If she makes mistakes, I'll be there to help her but I really want her to make mistakes. That's what life is about, making mistakes and learning from them, isn't? Paula, I'm sorry for all the times you've asked my help and I've ignored you. Please, understand that I have a busy life and sometimes I have so many things to do that I forget to do my homework as a sister.

For all of you that have sisters or brothers, Don't forget them. Just be there, speacially if they are younger because you've lived a bit more and you'll be a great help for them.

Now, for the ones that have seen the movie "In her shoes", here is the great poem by E.E Cummings. Paula, this one is for you!

I carry your heart with me

I carry your heart with me(I carry it in my heart)
I am never without it(anywhere I go, you go, my dear;
and whatever is done by only me, is your doing, my darling)
I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet)
I want no world (for beautiful, you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)
