I’ve always been drawn to
sisterhood stories, the deep bond of blood and soul. They say you can’t choose
your family and are stuck with them for life but I’m one of those #blessed to
have a sister whom I share an unbreakable soul connection that I wouldn’t trade
for anything in the world. At 12 years old, my heart was shattered to pieces (undoubtedly my first
heartbreak) when my older sister went to Texas to work as a registered nurse. It
was a tough time for me and I remembered writing long snail mails, voice
recording and singing on mix cassette tapes and talking on the phone just to
alleviate the pain of being away from each other. My sister is my source of
kindness, generosity and goodness, someone who inspires me during difficult adulting
times and become a better person. Although we are far apart, thanks to
technology, we now have time to catch up on normal everyday stuff. She is still
my heroine, raising amazing children and balancing her work and home life.
Sisterhood took a whole new level
for Daisy and Violet Hilton, conjoined twins and talented circus performers
during prewar times, led a hard life growing up, found love and experienced the
highs and lows of life together. Their story is a testament of real sibling
love and resilience against all odds.
