Sisters

I am blessed to have three wonderful sisters; sisters who know how to take a truly rotten day and turn it into laughter and sunshine.  These three women are more precious to me than words can express.  It is understandable why Susan would be special to me.  We are twins.  She has been with me since the day I was born.  We are separated now by two hundred miles but I am quite certain there will come a time in our old age when we will once again live together and stay together until one of us dies.  The other two sisters are younger; Mary by eleven years and Tina by sixteen.

Now that we are adults the age difference is as if it does not exist.  We are now both sisters and best friends and as best friends we confide our most intimate secrets with one another.  Men brag and blow about their lives as if they are the announcers in a sports arena, where as women share their lives.  They share the life's tragedies and sorrows along with the joys and laughter.  That is simply the nature of women.  All three of my sisters and I have married, divorced the bastards, bore beautiful children who have blessed us with joyous moments and heartaches.  Through the roller coaster rides of our lives we have always known we had each other's backs at all times.

Occasionally I meet a woman who has no sisters or who is estranged from their sister.  My heart goes out to these women.  I am blessed with many girlfriends along with my sisters.  These women I love and I would take a bullet for.  Thank you ladies for helping to make my life beautiful.  Without you I would be such a lost soul.
