My brother George came to visit for a couple days. He and wife Carolyn were on their way to Florida where they will visit our sister. The siblings in my family don't get together often but we love each other and I can honestly say we have never had conflict among ourselves.
Perhaps that is because we were born several years apart but I don't think that is the reason. I believe it is more that we are a product of our parents rearing, they found that right balance that permitted us to live our separate lives without jealousy or envy. In some ways people may not see us as a tight loving family, we have moved hundreds of miles apart, only see each other every few years, speak on the phone every few months. We have gone our separate ways but still carry a place in our heart not sullied with bad memories, anger or envy.
We love each other and it is always good when we meet.
