Of all the festivals we celebrate in India, Rakshabandhan is
my favourite. From buying new clothes to stalking online stores like Jabong.com
for the best gifts for my siblings to receiving gifts, the festival has a charm
of its own. And the excitement got doubled this year, when I celebrated
Rakshabandhan twice! Actually, two of my cousins were heading back to USA
around 18th while Rakshabandhan was on 29th of August.
So, we decided to ditch the date and celebrate when we all were together (the
perks of having crazy siblings.)

The Eternal Bond I Share with my Brother
It goes without saying that how badly I love my family; my
mom, brother, & sister are my universe and whatever I have achieved so far
is because of them. I simply love my family and never thought it could be so
difficult to express my love in words. So, I took this challenging task of
writing a post on the beautiful relation I share with my little brother who is
15 years younger to me. And before I
start describing why my brother rocks, I want to thank IGP.com for coming up with the amazing contest - #MySiblingRocks on the occasion of
Rakshabandhan.
As I mentioned earlier, my brother Chitraksh is 15 years
younger to me. When he was born, like any other teenager, I wasn’t really
comfortable with him. It wasn’t easy to see my parents giving all the attention
and love to the tiny boy who came into our lives just a few months ago. But, as
time passed by, I developed a strong emotional bond with my brother. In fact,
today I can say that he is my life and I can go to any extreme to see that one
smile on his face. He is now a 10-year smart, intelligent boy and in all these
years we have shared some of the most beautiful moments.
The Proud feeling
when everyone says he is my carbon copy
Not sure if it is the case with all siblings or just me but
whenever some relative or neighbour or even sometimes strangers say that he
looks exactly like me, I can’t stop smiling. And along with looks, his habits
and likes are very similar to mine. During all such instances, I feel so proud
and just end up saying, “See! He is my brother.”
How he makes me smile
when I feel blue
A true relationship is the one where emotions are expressed
& understood without the use of words. Gladly, I share a similar relation
with my brother, who despite being so young understands everything without even
saying. I love it when he cheers me up by pampering when I come home after a
long day at work. I love it when he wipes my tears whenever he sees me crying.
I truly feel blessed to have him in my life.
Since Rakshabandhan is the time to celebrate our bond, we celebrate
it every year with enthusiasm. This year it is falling on 29th
August and we are already game for it. While browsing Indian Gifts Portalwebsite, I came across some amazing rakhis and gift hampers. Let me show you
what I liked the most for my brother. The first one is a beautiful blue rakhi & second is a lavish rakhi gift hamper.

However, this post has all real-life incidents which are very close to my
heart.
