Oh, Brother

I used to wish I had sisters like no other. I'm the youngest of three, and also the only girl. You know what that makes me? The baby girl. And as much as that may seem sweet, it comes with its downs. Well, I used to consider them downsides, now I see them as blessings. It's not always fun to have two bodyguards watching out for you 24/7, but they actually have good intensions. They're not so bad. My brothers have become two of my best friends, and I adore them. Their protection is for my well being, and I'm thankful. But besides being hawks, they can be tons of fun, and pretty cool guys. Honestly, I learn so much from the both of them, and I know God put me in my family for reason. I wouldn't trade them for the world. After all, at least I have sibling that take in account my existence. They are sources of inspiration, and guidance. They love me like crazy, and it shows when they look out for me. It's a beautiful thing to have close bonds with your family members. I encourage it. To remember they're not some annoying people who share your DNA, but gifts from God to love and grow with each other. Even when we don't get along, our love is permanent, and will never change, nor fade. I know what I have, and I love it. Now that I'm getting older, we have more in common, and they have been there with me literally since day one. I love you guys.

A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
Proverbs 17:17 
You were cleansed from your sins when you obeyed the truth, so now you must show sincere love to each other as brothers and sisters. Love each deeply with all your heart.
1 Peter 1:22
