My Sisters...My Bestfriends


We're sisters...all six of us, and we're best of friends. We love to get together and talk, laugh and eat, and do all sorts of things fun sisters do together. We are a noisy bunch (at home, not in public) and our NANAY (MOM) used to  complain about our loud guffaws and  endless yaps. Truth is, NANAY loved to see us together doing what we do best...like I said...talk, eat and laugh! It used to behoove her how we could plan our next  merienda (snack)  while still eating lunch...and while eating snack we  could talk and plan our  dinner. Hey, food is one of the best things that bind people together.  Oh, but we're not all food, talk and laughter...we are also about caring , loving and looking out for each other. It is a comfort to know that there are  persons in our lives who share our beautiful past (growing up) together, who share  our successes, griefs, happiness together, who are commited to celebrate and journey through life. Sisters are  blessings---I know too well. Mine surely are!


Oh, the BEE among the flowers is our  brother. He is not a member of the SISTERHOOD...although we love him dearly....

"For there is no friend like a sister
In calm or stormy weather;
To cheer one on the  tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands."
---Chritina  Rossetti
"Sister. She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows you when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink......---Barbara Alpert

We laugh, we cry, we make time fly. Best friends are we...my sisters and me.

You keep your past by having sisters. As  you get older, they're the only ones who don't get bored if you talk about your  memories.-------Deborah Moggach

Love, Mercy and Grace, sisters all, attend your wounds of silence and hope.

             Having sisters is like  having best friends for life.

      The best thing about having sisters is that  I always have friends.

     A sister is a little bit of  childhood that  can never be lost.


Sisters don't intrude on your life, but they do keep an eye on it.

I'm smiling because you're my sister. I'm laughing  because  there's nothing you can do about it.
Both within the family and without,
our sisters hold up our mirrors;
Our images of who we are and of who we can dare to be.
                         ---Elizabeth Fuhel


Is solace anywhere more comforting  that that in the arms of a sister?
-------Alice Walker
There can be no situation in life in which the conversation of my dear sister will not administer some comfort to me.
--------Mary W. Montagu


A true sister is a friend who listens with her heart.

A friend knows all of your best stories, but a sister has been through all of them with you.        -----Unknown

Sister  is our first friend and second, mother.
----Sunny Gupta



Friends change. Lovers leave. Sisters are eternal.

YOu know full well as I do the value of sisters' affections: There is nothing like it in this world
----Charlotte Bronte


My sisters are my favorite people on earth.
----Ryan Phillippe
How do people make it through life without a sister?



You and I are sisters. Always remember that if you fall, I will pick you up---as soon as I finish laughing.


Sisters make the best of friends.
Sisters are different  flowers from the same  garden.
