A D Bouguereau "Two Sisters" bvccrefresh |
So, here is my Sunday Stuff to share. This was my latest 'hmmmmm....that IS interesting....'
All of my dearest girlfriends have sisters. Do you think it is coincidence that these girls-with-sisters and I share a scared trust, love, and will-be-there-for-ya-anytime and take-your-secrets-to-their-grave thing? I think these have women navigated the inroads of female relationship from being a sister. Sisters seem to have a deeper understanding and empathy in their DNA that I find refreshing, nurturing and supportive. It is also interesting that, these girls-with-sisters will always be best friends with their sisters despite their own disagreements and misunderstanding. So, girlfriends-with-sisters tend to not get pissed off or take things personally when my train jumps the track. They are roll-with-you, maybe-you-had-a-bad-day chics. Gotta love that!
What's your take?
Thanks lovelies for allowing me to ramble on about Sisters. No, I don't have any biological sisters. Just my adopted ones.
Being one of your best friends with a sister got me musing after reading your post. (And, my dear, you are a Pisces, although I have sometimes seen you in Pieces :).
ReplyDeleteWe have known each other for close to 30 years. I've known my sister for 61 years and we are very dear to each other. But I find that most of my secrets reside with you. Why is that? For one thing, you possess an ardent curiosity about people, and an astute understanding of those you love. I can't get away with much around you. You dig stuff out whether I am willing to let go or not. My sister, even as close as we are, is more like me in that we don't ask much about things we'd rather not know. I think I feel that I could potentially disappoint her, as we are a judgmental family. You have an inherent acceptance of humans with all their complexities, and I feel safe allowing you in to my introverted life.
That is my take. And I love you to pieces (or is that Pisces?)!
And yes, I think I finally figured out how to respond to your blog. We'll see.
Karen, you know me and my 'Fin-NET-ic' spelling. Pisces/Pieces--pretty funny... I figured your sister knew all of your business (since I do.) You, my dear, have just told me something I didn't know! I love you and glad you feel safe to share with me ;)
ReplyDeleteyes and my sister has a best friend and one of these days we will live out our days in the Hansford Manor and shoot peas at all the old men
ReplyDeleteToo funny, Gina! I know you gals will have a swell time at Hansford Manor.
