Thought(s) for the Day

“To the outside world we all grow old. 
But not to brothers and sisters.
We know each other as we always were. 
We know each other's hearts.
We share private family jokes. 
We remember family feuds and secrets,
family griefs and joys. 
We live outside the touch of time.”
Clara Ortega

“Our siblings.  They resemble us 
just enough to make
all their differences confusing, 
and no matter what
we choose to make of this, 
we are cast in relation
to them our whole lives long.” 

Susan Scarf Merrell
