Sisterhood Was Our Quiet Anchor
We didn't always know where we belonged.
There were times when the world felt confusing, unfamiliar and difficult to navigate.
But through it all, we had each other.
Looking at this photograph now, I don't just see two sisters standing side by side.
I see years of shared experience.
Shared memories.
Shared challenges.
I see two sisters trying to find their place in a world that didn't always make sense to them.
We couldn't fix everything.
We couldn't change what was happening around us.
But we didn't have to face it entirely alone.
Looking back, I realise how much comfort there was in simply knowing someone else understood.
Someone who had lived the same moments.
Someone who didn't need every part of the story explained.
When so much felt uncertain, that connection became its own kind of safety.
Sisterhood was our quiet anchor.
And in many ways, it still is.
