Song of the Moment: Shadowlands - Bruce Hornsby
There are some gifts you get in this life, that you appreciate at first...and then they overtake you as something bigger, sweeter and more valuable then you could ever imagine.
My sister is that gift for me. A beautiful, effervescent baby turned into a vibrant,courageous woman before my eyes. Her driver's license and my grey hairs peeking here and there are the only proof of the passing of time. I called her tonight, as I always do when I feel myself sinking into something I can't quite define. No one else can fix it, I don't expect anyone else to understand the experiences that inspire slow leaks quite like she can.
There are some hurts and pains that time fades. Others rise and fall when a cold wind blows. It is during those times I love being able to rest my head in her lap and be understood in my silence.
There is no greater treasure.
So tonight my sweetest little mouse, I send you what you send me. Thank you for finding me in my shadowlands.

I will always find you. We will always have each other, I will never be too far to get to you in the blink of an eye. I love you.
Your piece stayed with me all night. You inspired me to put pen to paper. Please read my poem, To See You Again.
you guys are very lucky.
nice song too. I like Bruce H.
You are so blessed to have a blood relative and sister who you trust, confide in and will grow old with. Obviously, you two have nurtured each other tremendously throughout the years. I love reading about your relationship. I do hope you write a book on your sisterhood/friendship. All of us could learn of your respect for each other. May you continue to bask in the glory of one another!
