Words are Funny

I have two sisters, my older and younger sister. Many people take this to mean I am a middle child, but in fact, I am the oldest. I have two younger sisters, one is older than the other… My older sister is actually the middle child. I know I could clear this up by referring to them as my younger and youngest, something like that, but I that would be like giving them new names. My younger sister (the middle one) is in some ways wiser than me, so maybe I called her my older sister to subconsciously acknowledge she felt like an older sibling. I’ll have to think about it. Words are funny. They can carry secret meanings that reveal truths that are not said out loud.
