Siblings, without them one cannot even begin to pursue bliss, my bliss

I have two sisters and a brother. They are all gorgeous. Growing up my older sister Sue was so beautiful. She had all the attention and of course all the admiring glances. Me? I was the dork, the prude ( still am) and the one who went to school, then to high school, then to university then to work. Even when I was studying in England and had summer break, my plan was to go across to USA, mom said come home for the holidays  , I did. Errrr,what happened? I did everything by the book.Dont get me wrong, I have turned out  to be exactly what I want to be, where I want to be and very very happy,blissful about who I am. It was the journey that I wondered till now, whether I should have or could  have done differently?Well I will never know will I? Then after me, is my brother. He is so special. He is the angel in the family. Have always been the quiet and gentle one. He was after all surrounded by girls , his sisters. D'ya think that was it?The handsome boy, tall dark and handsome.All the girls admired him. He was always the quiet one but had a wicked sense of humour,wicked. We love him , to death. Now he is all grown with his own beautiful angels, he is still my little brother.

Then came my littlest sister, mind you she is her mid 30's , so she wont appreciate this. But there you have it, my littlest sister. Clever, very clever, beautiful, gorgeous, trend setter, why she was even picked out of a crowd and asked to be a model, which we all would have jumped at, but No! not her, she declined. Hang about, what did we miss here? Her restriant was angelic,almost inhuman like. Even growing up she didnt like anyone seeing her in dad's car,no one was too praise her or even talk about what she wore. Its  still the same today. I asked her about her gggorgeous Gucci handbag, and her reply was, What are you talking about? and that was that!

I was surrounded by angels, no need to speak about these things. No human need to show what they had, all that wasnt important. What was important was the four of us.So there you have it, how could I not learn about Bliss? My whole surround was conspiring to teach me about my inner Bliss from my parents who are my Rock, to my siblings who are angles walking this earth.

Since I have had the foundation from a loving family,the  change I am going through and facing is extraordinary. I have had an epiphany. I have to live everyday to the fullest and achieve as if its my last day on earth. I am happy. In Bliss.

  1. A lady asked a Hindu mystic how to love God, when she had no idea who God is, the mystic asked if she had siblings - children & grandchildren ? She answered she had 6 in all. The mystic replied : Go, return to your home, love them, love them all with the fullness of heart, so shall you see them as pure as they are godly, and God will love you even if you know Him not !
