Untold Responsibility of an Elder Brother

Elder Brother

Today I'm going to tell about the untold lovingness and care of elder brother which you never see in his eye and never feel like in same way when you see a glass of water then you can't be able to know that salt is present or not you can only know by testing it (In the same way, you can know how much your brother care about you when you come in trouble otherwise you never know because some relationships never show you how much they want you and love they become strict for you in normal circumstances and sacrifice many desires and maintain discipline by keeping in mind (that) if I do this then what impact goes will have on my small sibling so he sacrifices his own childhood in childhood and always stays like older than own age for sending positive and good behavior to his own sibling but nowadays small siblings hate own elder brother by thinking that he is restricted on from my happiness and spoiling my childhood so they start to be jealous with elder brother and always try to fight with him and insult him. But times As time go by, and when they have become mature and separate from their brother and they are stuck in any emergency, then they suddenly remember brother their brother and think if brother is there then he can overcome help me overcome me in anyhow by this situation, and then they realize the value of salt, like a brother if present then is not important, and if not present then how ugly it is. That's why the Sage says to give respect to the elder brother even more than God. I see in many families, the elder brother, since childhood due to economic issues, does not go to school himself but tries to work and pay the fees of his younger sibling. His only dream is, "I'm not a scholar, but my sibling should be a scholar and become a good government officer." However, if the younger brother becomes an officer, he forgets all the sacrifices of his brother and feels ashamed of saying "namaste" and introducing him in front of colleagues or any friends. He behaves like his brother is a servant, or worse than a servant. He thinks he is ultramodern, and his brother is uneducated and stupid. So now, he always tries to insult his brother and engages in showing himself as smarter, not wanting to go home or stay with that family in the village. His eyes become blind in the light of the city, but the corona period proved that you may become rich, but in the village, your family relationship should stay strong. Even if your family is not in the village, you should keep even a small home in the village, so that in a pandemic situation, you can go home and overcome the pandemic situation. On earth, every relationship is based on profit, except your sibling relationship. There is no other relationship whose intention is not to gain profit. Your friends leave you when you become poor, or when your situation becomes bad, your wife starts to comment on you about your situation, but only your brother will cooperate with you and give you suggestions on how to overcome the situation. He is the only person who thinks without acting for himself. For example, when buying any item, he thinks, "Does my brother have this item, or does he need it?" If he doesn't buy something, it might be because his brother can buy something else more important, which they need more than him. Family relationships teach you how to stay happy in sacrifice for your sibling, and truly, you feel more happiness in sacrifice than in gaining any item. Now I want to end my story by saying, never fight or insult your elder brother. Even if he misbehaves with you, try to understand and know that he is in some kind of trouble or upset for some reason. Now the time has come to give back your responsibility to him and work with him like a god.

    Thank you for reading my poem ‘Negative gravity.’ Your writing very much makes me think of how our family lives become so complex as we get older. But we should not forget our beginnings... I very much enjoyed this Pauline 🌸
