This Sibling's Journey

A couple of weeks ago, i got engaged. it was indeed a jouyous day... what could have made the day even more joyous if i had my sister physically here to share the news with her. as i try to begin planning for my big day, i just couldn't stop myself from feeling lonely. as i try to explain to my (now..) fiance that things would have been different if only she was here. i never felt so envious of my friend as she had her sister next to her to share what she's going through. as we were growing up, my sister used to remind us that we need not to envy anyone around us, and i have learned that. i have not felt this envious towards my friends when i saw them with their parents during graduation. my sister (and brother) had made such a good job (on me) that they filled the void in me. truth is, i just feel so lucky that i have them in my life.

now, if there is such thing as an engagement or wedding wish... i wish for my sister and my dad to be present as i partake on another journey of my life.
