The Power of Siblings

A friend in need is a friend indeed. But a brother doesn't need a 'need' to support you. He's always by your side whether you are doing right or wrong, good or bad.

My memory fades when I try to recollect your babyhood (I was too little) though I remember the night you were born, the first ever night I stayed without mom. But she gave me a companion for life time.

Your school days, those pranks you played to get rid of study time, those powerful stories you built on the go to manage any situation are vividly registered in my mind. Little did I realize then that those stories and pranks were your first step to creativity and instincts.

I am a loser when it comes to debating, arguments, discussions or for that matter any activity the requires rigorous talking. You have been my saviour and voice when I was in trouble talking.
I have sat beside you in every concert and hid my voice under yours. But I knew all the applause belonged to you.

You gained me a lot of respect from people I never even met. Am not sure what you talk about me, but I am overwhelmed.

If we get a chance let's re-live those days when we played in the backyard drinking our evening glass of milk, when we swung together singing our favourite numbers, when we played backyard cricket, when we 'dubsmashed' the comedy dialogues, when we fought for the TV remote (swatcats vs movies), when we did pillow fighting, when we played business, when we were at the theatres together, when we fought for the plate of maggi and the list goes never ending.

Have a blasting year and life ahead!!!Happy Birthday Dear Bro!!!

Thanks for the wishes ka.
You are telling that you hid your voice under mine. I'm just wondering what a horrible show it would've always been without you putting the thalam right. It was always a team show. I was telling someone y'day about the maggi noodles story. Thinking back, you've been my voice of reason, pillar of support and without you I wouldn't have achieved even one bit of whatever I have until now.
Been one hell of a ride.
