Am I being rude to my sister?

Am I being rude to my sister?

Have you been rude to your sister or if you don't have a sister, maybe to your brother?? As the oldest daughter of my mom, I was held responsible for taking care and guiding my siblings, be an example of whether it could or couldn't help them…

As you help your parent guide them, you may tend to be impatient because of their innocence in so many things in life, things that they do not know or know but they do not even understand it further.

Yesterday, I and my sister went to the mall. We were happy then and very excited to go shopping. But things roll around to negative when I held my sister be responsible for the clothes that I bought. She forgot about it. She forgot where did she put it, and I really get pissed, that pissed, turned to get mad at her.

I was thinking about the price of those clothes, whether it's cheap or not. If you've been trusted with something, you should take care of it. So instead of going shopping or to the mall to take for a walk, I decided to go home. Her face turned dim -- I just can't talk to her.

She cries silently having the thought of me, not knowing it. But when we got home, I realize something that this little girl was so young and is just starting to know the meaning of true responsibility. It's my entire fault since then. I didn't even explain it to her. My actions also surprised and brought me to my conscience.

This was only a light event with us. But it can give lessons to some of us, whether you have siblings or not, still, you must always remember:

1. Some do not mean it
- Not all people really mean what they do to you, it is either positive or negative. So, anyone of us must fully understand the whole situation, especially the emotional state of that person.

2. You're older or more experienced
- If that person wasn't capable of what you've trusted to him/her and he did make a flaw or a mistake in it. You must remember to make yourself calm and think twice before getting mad at him. Instead of scolding or putting him into shame to fear you, try to explain it to him, since you're older and have more experience than your siblings.

3. Be patient
- I know! I know, that some of you and even me have experienced to be impatient to our siblings and even friends, but what you have to reconsider before getting mad at anyone  is their ability to fully understand the situation for them to learn their mistake or what they have to learn.

4. Entrusted -- take care of it
- If you've been trusted by someone or something, then you must take care of it; as the saying goes ' Trust is the the most difficult thing to build to someone ' especially nowadays!. And if you broke the trust once, twice or even thrice, that will be harder for you to gain it back.

5. Learn to forgive
- Every one of us must learn to forgive, whether the mistakes that person leaves you a deep scar, still you have to forgive, remember -- Nobody's perfect. Forgiving doesn't mean forgetting -- you're just giving the person a chance to learn from his mistake or do again what he has done to you.
