Every year, National Siblings Day is observed on 24 May. The special day celebrates the bond you have with a special person- your brother. The bond between siblings is unbreakable, and nothing can possibly replace your brother/s’ place in your life. They are our partners-in-crime, biggest supports, and understand us in a way that no one else ever will. The presence of an elder or younger sibling can sometimes be the greatest relief in times of distress and loneliness. Brothers Day is a perfect day to celebrate our brothers and shower immense love and care on them.
