In keeping with the spirit of Sisters'
Day, the inclusion of step- and adopted sisters in the celebration
is vital to keeping the changing face of the modern family
up to date. Parents of siblings should use this holiday to
encourage interaction, communication, and the basis for a
supportive relationship between them from an early age. If
you and your sisters are separated by time, distance, and
lifestyle, this is your chance to renew your connection with
them. Reach out across the country, or around the world, and
bring your sisterly network to life again through phone calls,
scheduling reunions that are independent of times that your
family or sisterhood already gets together, or establishing
an electronic link. Keep updated on your respective lives,
because you never know what you might find out about each
other, or yourself! In the event of no sister(s) with whom
to share this meaningful occasion, seek out a group of women
with whom you may foster a sisterly bond based on various
aspects of your culture, personality, and much more. Sisterhood
is about more than being sisters, namely, it is about being
women and being there for each other! |
