My sister... my soul sister... my little big sister

I'd like to share a little bit of my story with my sister. We had been raised to compete with one another. I was labelled the pretty but fat one and she was the slim but… not so pretty one because she didn't have blue eyes. And it went on and on… so that for a very long time, we danced what I call the tango. If I took a step forward she would take one backwards and so on. We both loved doing art yet if one became arty, the other suddenly stopped being interested in art. It was indeed very tedious and very boring.
When I was fifteen I told her “look Helene, we are sisters, we decided to incarnate together because we have things to go and sort together so why not just get on with it!” She looked at me in in shock LOL
And one day she had the courage to do therapy. And she came to me and said: “it must be hard being in the middle of me and our brother. I can see that it took a lot of work for you to be noticed and you must have felt quite neglected”. I nearly cried. From there on, we decided to drop the competition and to start on our spiritual sisterhood. She is the one who encouraged me to start mosaics by buying me a set of snippers and a small terracotta pot when I visited her in the US, where she lives.
I was so impressed with how therapy changed her to a happier person that I decided to embark on that journey myself a few years later and it did me too a world of good.
We now always support each other and listen to each other. It is a wonderful feeling. We have grown beyond our upbringing and to such joyful and amazing relationship. Thank you Helene

it's amazing how therapy can change everything. I'm closer to my sisters too than ever. very grateful not to have to be stuck in the old false patterns.
Anges, I am so happy for you! Something about the bumpiness of the journey uphill makes the ride back down on the other side so much sweeter, doesn't it?
Thankfully my sister and I didn't have much contact during the years we were separated and so the similarities resounded much more than the differences when we did meet up. It is interesting how we were both longing for sisters unknowingly though… she for a little sister and me for a big sister… The soul beckons, I would imagine.
Really so happy for you both. [Now I'm glad I didn't mention your beautiful eyes when I met with you hahaha]
Peace and blessings to all.
