You may not know it, but having a big sister is the greatest thing ever. She's a friend, a confidant, a person that will always be there for you. Granted, you may fight every once in a while, but when times are tough you know who will be your greatest ally.

She may tease you or sometimes just be a complete pest, but she is also going to prevent others from doing the same. She may nit-pick your decisions to the point where you want to scream. She may hurt your feelings and make you believe that if only you were more like her you would be perfect. 

But then there are those times when she lets you know that while she is a terror for most of the day, she is always going to love you. Even when you can't stand to look at her face, she is still going to love you. 

Are you still not convinced that your big sister is the most amazing person in your world? Okay, well let's break it down:

Before you ever met any of your current friends, your sister was there. You and she were always destined to be friends by birth. Of course, that also means that your oldest friendship is with your sister. The times you shared over the years will bring you together as she will be your nearest and dearest friend.

When you are having family drama she knows what you are dealing with because this is your family. She understands the misadventures of your family, and she can be that shoulder to lean on when times are difficult.

As much as she may annoy you, she is always going to accept you for who you are. Even when she is poking and prodding you to be everything you can be, she is always going to let you make the decision on who you are. You can be genuine with her.

You may not ALWAYS like her style, but you know that in a pinch she probably has that thing you need to wear to that last second event. Yeah, it may tick her off sometimes when you borrow without permission, but she will get over it. Besides, she takes your stuff too. And part of her likes it when you dress like her. She must be rubbing off on you.

Her extra time in the world has given her a wisdom that you can use to see things from another point of view. She can often provide vision that you may not get from your friends and other people your age.

Sometimes life takes us to far away places. The awesome thing about having a big sister is that she will make you feel like her place is your place as well. There is always a soft pillow and a blanket waiting. She makes you feel safe and secure when no one else will.

When it matters most, your sister may be the only person that will tell you what you need to hear as opposed to what you want to hear. She may be blunt and overshare in the moment, but her honesty comes from a place of love.

Your big sister knows the potential you have inside you . She believes in you when you sometimes don't believe in yourself. She has seen your trials and tribulations. She knows just how far you need to go and will be the one to support you when you fall.

There are times when you are too close to a situation to make an objective decision. A big sister can be the one to break down the situation and let you know if you are on the right path. She can also be a sounding board for when you just want to vent.

Whether you are in a relationship or living the single life, you sister will always be the Swiss army blade of people. She is the person you can go to in almost any situation; especially if you have just had your heart broken. She is the one to seek whenever you feel like you are in over your head.
