From Different (Tri)Angles (& Squares).
What balances the rivalry between siblings is their impermeable bond, strengthened by their shared histories and idiosyncrasies which almost no one else (in the world) is privy to. A protector against bullies and a comrade against parental discipline, to understand the plight of the only-child is an impossible feat. This doesn't mean, of course, that torture-fests and fractured bones are not sprinkled upon the ties-that-bind, but almost always it's the assailing sibling who sticks around to pick up the broken pieces and make amends, and will do almost anything for the other. Enjoy!
Oh, that sounds so complicated. But how generous.
