“Little late but with Love”

Sincere apologies for the lateness of this gift, however, I want you to know how much I enjoyed the months when you are in Pakistan, and spending quality time with me and all my family members. It was a great time when you and I fought over many things related to ordinary things, I used to get angry at you on such ordinary topics, But I often laughed so much when I remember our happy moments of togetherness. You know there are some people in this world with whom I can share everything without hesitation and you know you are one of them. I like the broad vision you have about the things and all the positive perspectives you have even about negative things with an experimental mindset. I like the way you honor others with little gifts, it may be flowers, some eatable things or little pennies to children, just to make them feel special.

You inspired me with all these lollipop moments in life, I’m inspired when you give honor to the elder brother, elder sisters by presenting them their favorite eatable thing.

I’m inspired when I’m getting angry at you, but you stay quiet and tolerate my angry behavior and stay positive-minded. I have learned from this experience that one must remain cool and positive-minded no matter others getting angry about little things or not. This positive behavior made them realize how important they are in our lives. I just want to thank You for being in my life, your Love, Your Support, your affection, even everything realized me how lucky I am to have you.

Thank You for Everything.

I Send this letter and handmade card to my younger brother through (who is staying in China for higher education since last Year) E-mail and also by capturing this beautifully decorated card and attached with the email.

We have shared so many moments together since our Primary to Intermediate classes, we played together, worked together, studied together, and all stuff done together.

I know being an elder sister, I often irritate him, but nowadays I miss him so much and I realized that having a brother is a blessing, and this pandemic created so many distances among our loved ones.

I just want to say Thanks to him because once John Paul said “As the family goes so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live” and I feel my whole world goes on with him.

I am waiting for his reply as this little gift might create some happiness on his face and I want to see that happiness in his words.
