"Life is not always the same

Grown from the same strong root,

Nurtured, protected and cared,

Life moves on, and the truth is not pleasant,

Life takes them to opposite directions,

Siblings do not always remain together,

They have to follow different paths,

Just like the branches of a tree,

They spread out in different directions,

To grow, develop and rise,

But in their connected hearts,

The attachment and affection remains,

Love grows each day, to remain forever.

-Chitrangada Sharan
