Sisters

“A true friend knows your weaknesses but shows you your strengths; feels your fears but fortifies your faith; sees your anxieties but frees your spirit; recognizes your disabilities but emphasizes your possibilities.” William Arthur Ward

Friends-a person attached to another by feelings of affection or personal regard (comrade, chum, crony, confidant)
Sister- a female friend or protector; A girl or woman who shares a common ancestry, allegiance, character, or purpose with another or others.

Friends do crazy things. But you know what? They're always there to patch you up when you don't even know you need it. To talk in third person with you. To sing all the time. To go for bike rides. To walk on jetty's. To just be naturally insane...

Sometimes there is a very thin line between things. But there is not a thin line between being sisters and being friends. Between those two things there is a long road... a road with rocks, barriers, soft grass, sunny days, and long times of rain. The thing is you never really get to the end of that road. But st some point while walking, you realized that the friend you're walking with isn't just a friend anymore. The bond is stronger that being attached by 'personal regard'. It's having the same character. You realize that you're kindred spirits. And that's the moment you see that you no longer have just a friend walking next to you, you have a sister.

Friendship is something you can't live without, having sisters is something I couldn't live without...

"Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art . . . it has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival." -C.S. Lewis
