Sisterhood means that you're more than where you came from and greater than you ever imagine to be. You bond, you cry, you live and true sisters die loving each other and all you've created. You can't mold someone into being a sister. You can only experience the true love of a compassionate person with loyalty that you can call your own. Sisterhood is not forced nor is it mocked. It is not mean, nor is it spiteful. True sisterhood is an ongoing journey with someone who is a mirror to you. You may look left, you may look right and features can change and grow old. But when you look directly into the eyes, in that mirror, you see the same love and dedication running through that person that you feel in yourself.
That's sisterhood. This winding and every challenging road that is long and full of perils but it's yours to take. It's one you've chosen and it's one that you will continue to fight for and be in no matter what may jump out of the trees. And when you've over packed your bag that you carry on your back during this journey, your sister will take that weight and carry it as her own. She will ease that burden just so you can walk a few miles without the pressure.
And when the time comes, a true sister will wish you goodbye if you have chosen to leave her. She will mourn for your loss as a true sister would. She won't rejoice in you taken your burdens with you because they were never solely yours. However, a true sister would understand that a sisterhood cannot be left behind or simply forgotten. Sisterhoods are forever.
