We are a sisterhood of shared dreams, shared friends, shared futures. We are like branches of a tree that weave in and out of each other, forever connecting. Always together. We’ve walked down that same street in the same pair of jeans, and we’ve trod the same path in the same worn-out sneakers. Even though you set the tune, I happily follow, forever your equal. Forever your friend. - Except from Branches of a Tree by Ella Bright Siblings can often share the same experiences, the same friends, and the same clothes. They are interlaced and connected in ways that parents are not; they have an unspoken bond of truth, trust, and unconditional love that embodies itself in hand-me-downs and pre-loved dolls. And while the eldest often blazes the path, the younger will gladly follow to the ends of the earth. A bond that is stronger than water and thicker than blood is the bond that siblings share.
