Getting the Jitters

So my sister arrives tomorrow night - i'm more nervous than excited. When I spoke to her sometime back, she told me that she now understands why I left home. It felt good to hear her say that.

The context was that our mom has bought her a new suitcase so that she is able to carry the millions of things that are being sent for me. My parents have a problem - they can only buy in excess. So my sis says that to escape my parents' generosity (love) I could have either left home like I did or get married like she did.

I also spoke to my Aunt a few hours back. She is the youngest of all my aunts and the most wise. We were talking about my sister's visit and she said that siblings are a part of each other. It made so much sense to me. She used just the right words. I wonder how she knows so much about life and relationships.

So this visit is very crucial for me and my sis. I hate putting so much pressure on myself but I can't help it. This is the first time we will be together for so many days since she got married three years back. With so much going on in her life, the husband and the baby, she has hardly ever been free of responsibilities. I hope I can get her to live a different life for the few days that she will be here.

Fingers crossed :)
