I am sorry for the senseless banter that is about to follow, but I have to put this down. I know that by the time this is actually posted it will be more than a week since my sister’s marriage, but I promise to myself that there will be no changes in the original version. This will be posted as it is being written now.
It feels kind of wierd after your sister’s marriage. On one hand, you are happy that she is beginning a new life together with some one she loves, someone who cares about her and will love her for the rest of his life, and on the other hand you are sad to see a part of you leave for ever. I know it is not that she will stop being your sister, but you will obviously never have the kind of time to spend together that you had before, nor will you come first in her life.
The strange thing is, while we all talk about the feeling of the girl’s parents, there is little or no thought given to those of her siblings, specially her brothers. It seems that we brothers are assumed to be detatched from our sisters, but believe me, it is not the case.
We may not get a chance to express our anguish or to mourne our loss, but the feeling is still there – may be not for all to see. I know, because I have felt that way twice.
And still, I am happy because my sister is, and because she is stepping into a new dimension with the man she loves. I just hope and pray that their ride is a happy one

Over and out


There was nothing much felt during the time of my sis’s marriage.. but only when i returned home and started living without her being at home i started missing her !!!
Nice post buddy !!!
you are right buddy…. I too missed her not being at home
.
Marriage is a institution, that requires you to take up new beginnings and leave behind the belongings….!!!
Never mind…this is the way exactly everybody(related humans) feels, apart from being a sister, brother, mother or father!!!!
hmmm….. just wanted to express how I felt at that moment. Am not sure if I was able to express it in words.
I just said it…!!!
No Intentions whatsoever……….!!!
Welcome Back….
You are right in every sense….it is weired after marriage when your sisters visit their parents house like guests….and to the same house where they spent almost half of their lives….
But can’t help it this is the way it goes…..
it is weird in a lot of ways actually
hmmm hashir, this is way of life, but atleast todays mordern way of living doesnt difficukt u as older days,
it is not about the difficulties in remaining in touch bro… just that there are a lot of subtle changes in the relationship
Strange but true. We put our blame on life and continue proclaiming “This is how life works…”
Yeps Pankaj…. strange but true
Congratulations… and wishing wonderful life ahead for your sister and her brother to
Thnx Savi….
