Hi myLotters!
I just viewed a picture from facebook and it's a pic from my younger brother's baccalaureate mass.. I noticed his eyes were a little poppy, and I thought for a reason why, which made me remember about that tearful moment..
I attended that mass for him since our mother just died few months before he graduated from college, and being the older sister, I had, and wanted to be there for him on that day. So the mass went on well.. There was a part of the mass in which the priest requested all graduates to say "I love you" to their parents, and since my brother doesn't have his parent with him, he became teary, and he really cried and cried, and I saw him from a distant.. He then came up to me and gave me a rose, and a souvenir with a tag " Thank You" in it. Though I know that it is intended for my mother, I accepted it. I cried.. I felt his sorrow.. I felt how sad he was graduating without our mother..
I never felt ashamed of crying with him.. My brother and I are really close. He is a kind sibling and I love him so.. that moment would always be in my memory..
Have you ever cried with your siblings before? How did you feel about it?

hello dear friend.
that was a sad experience to share... but also a wonderful moment to spend with your brother as well. so sad to know what happened to your mom.
you know,i can't help but scan through your brother's photos in facebook,haha
i found him cute when he is not that chubby. i can say he looks like you also.
but your older sister doesn't much look like you,i think.
well,back to your topic,i remember i had cried with my sisters when our mother is undergoing her heart operation. she was in the recovery room that time,though we can see she's already survived the operation,we can't help not to cry seeing her like that with tubes attached to her body. people saw us crying and hugging at the same time.
actually,i'm getting teary eyed now just by remembering that incident.
we were really scared that time cause there's 50-50 chances of survival.
anyways,we were really happy despite that incident,we still have our mother with us.
it's hard to lose a parent,i can say. and however i'm not that close to them,i still do loved them,and i still don't want them to go...

Haha.. You think my brother is cute? Thanks for that.. Because he looks like me that's why.. Haha.. He isn't chubby anymore right now because he lost some wieght when he started his work on a call center at Libis..
But hey, I am the older sister.. I only have a younger sister.. And yes, I don't think she looks like me. My younger sister is prettier I guess.
You know you are very lucky to still have a mother at this time of your lives.. I wish I could have our mother again but that wasn't meant to be.. I knew the story about your mother because your sister have shared that story when we went to your house.. You and your sister seems to be really close and that's super nice.. It's very important that we have companions specially on trying times of our lives..
It is very hard to lose a parent so we all have to appreciate them while they are still with us because life is too short a time to be wasted at all..
Thanks for sharing dear!

that means you are cute,my dear! can't you see that?
yeah,i can see he lose weight,but it's okay,he's much cuter now than before.
oh,you are the eldest among the three of you. so sorry for the mistake. means,your sister is the youngest right? well,i can see now that you are a mother of two families,huh?
it's a very tough job! and if you were able to handle that at the same time,i admire you for that! i can see it is very hard to be a mom.
may i ask when did your mom passed away? i don't know the story behind that,dear.
oh,you mean,my twin sister told you the story about our mom back then?
actually,i am not that close to her.it's the other sister that we have that i cried with.
but we aren't close that much,you know.
oh dear,can you please lessen your giving thanks when you do see me in your topics?
i mean,we are friends here and even outside this site,and in friendships we really don't have to be formal...

Thank you for the nice compliment my friend! Haha!
Yeah that's what I feel too, that I'm a mother for my daughter and for my siblings too.. But it's okay because if I let this house go and live away with them I just don't know how this house would turn into.. And besides my father wanted us to stay here.. So here we are.. But it isn't always that nice. It becomes the root of all the jealousy my eldest brother has to me...
hahah.. okay copy! no thanks from now on..

yes i have... it happened last May of this year... when we were tryin to make a decision for our father. a decision that even the doctors are not sure if this could help him or not... if we do this procedure and fails it would worsen his (dad) condition if we wont there would be a possibility that it would make him a little better.. a decision that has a WHAT IF tag at the end... we cried for we dont know what to do anymore... we dont want to loose him.. but sadly our dad pass away.

Your story is so sad dear flauee.. I feel for you.. I too have lost our mother and it was a very difficult time for all of us.. I know thee feeling and so I really felt your difficulties with your story.. I just hope that you recover from what happened to your father.. Really, making decision for our loved ones isn't that easy, specially if the life of that person depends in what decision will you make.. But it's good that we have our siblings to be with us in those times..
thanks for sharing and I hope you are better now..

Of course I have. I mean, we cried a lot, but not in a bad situation. I mean, me and my two sisters are not that emotional, but we cried when we watched some sad family movies, and we watched movies a lot so we often cried together watching movie. LOL. Well... maybe we cried in a different way like you and your siblings, but at least it answer your question... yes, we cried together. :D

Hi klaudine..
It's really fun watching movies with sisters, specially if it's drama..Good thing you and your sister don't feel awkward about crying on movies.. I can see that you and your sister really jive with each others interests..
It doesn't matter if you tell me stories in a different way on how you cry with your sibling.. For as long as it makes sense, that's what is important, and I greatly appreciate that..
Thanks for responding klaudine,happy myLotting!
