What's the best thing your bro/sis has done for you?

With Raksha Bandhan coming up on Thursday, August 18, we want to know what is the most wonderful thing your brother/sister has done for you.

Brothers and sisters share a special bond -- of love, friendship and brotherhood -- one that is hard to explain.

The same person who irritates you at home won't spare anyone who messes with you outside the house.

The same sister who complains about your minor misdeeds to your parents can keep a secret for life, if you ask her to.

Brothers and sisters are God-sent angels who surprise you with their endless, elfless love.

So, what is the most wonderful thing your brother/sister has done for you?

Has s/he helped you in your career?

Has s/he taken care of you when you were at the hospital?

Has s/he helped you survive a difficult life situation?

Or has s/he saved up and surprised you with a gift you always dreamed of? Tell us all about it.

Send your stories to getahead@rediff.co.in (Subject 'Wonderful Rakhi Gift') and we'll post the best ones right here on Rediff.com!
