SERVICES

continued from page 42 Traditionally, children higher in the birth order are not only teachers to the little ones but the responsibilities assigned to them often builds multiple skills that serves them well in their careers. One cannot expect all brothers to have a relationship like Ram and Lakshman.

Even the goddesses Lakshmi and Saraswati are depicted in ancient tales as sisters harboring rivalry and having frequent arguments. Joint families around the world must find a way to navigate through sibling issues during adulthood as serious conflicts can escalate ultimately, leading to estrangement.

In the United States where joint families are not common, it has been found that only about half the population contacts their siblings at least once a month. With the rest, the strength of the attachment seems to go downhill as people grow up.

However, it is noteworthy that “the number of Americans who are completely estranged from a sibling is relatively small—less than five percent, according to Karl Pillemer at Cornell University” (psychologytoday.com). Cutting off ties with your brothers or sisters could be a consequence of bullying, abuse or simply due to losing common interests and eventually drifting apart for good. Like all relationships, the output will be in proportion to the effort put in. This is where family and/or religious traditions can help.

Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays bring families together and carving out time or specific activities for siblings to share can make it memorable. Raksha Bandhan and Bhai Dooj with its time-tested rituals present brothers and sisters an opportunity to refresh the commitment they have toward one another every year. Although, I don’t think that these two festivals should be limited to the bandhan (bond) between opposite sex siblings. Sisters are known to protect each other, and brothers care for the wellbeing of their brothers, too. Expecting family vacations or celebrations to resolve tensions is being foolhardy. In my mind, rituals are catalysts that strengthen family ties when true love exists.

In the absence of genuine affection, those actions are meaningless.

Healthy relationships among siblings take on greater importance when they are running a family business or making decisions about their parents or property. Traditionally, outside help is seen as unwelcome but there is value in inviting moderators or family therapists to steer the members toward resolution of the most critical issues.

Despite our tendency to hate the things our siblings do, there is greater benefit to loving one another, especially if you prefer profits over losses. So, it may be worthwhile to increase your investment in that timeless bond.

Whether you are an only child or you have grown up with siblings, l hope that the holidays bring you much joy and happy moments with your loved ones.

It was hailed as the Day of eight billion. Of course, no one knows when that specific child was born exactly, but it was a reasonable calculation using available data and current birth rate trends. It is highly likely that child was born in India.

The Earth’s human population hit eight billion in midNovember 2022. It’s a staggering number that is expected to hit nine billion in about 17 years, give or take. This is within lifetimes of most people reading this. Think about that. Another billion humans will fill this planet before a child born today becomes a legal adult.

So many humans among so many other creatures, many shrinking in numbers while our numbers grow. There is a direct cause and effect.

The scientific consensus is that the human population will peak around 10.7 billion sometime toward the end of this century before it flatlines. Who knows? That is if we don’t wreck our own homes and ecosystems and make large parts of the planet uninhabitable.

Humans are filling in every nook and cranny and uninhabited as well as inhospitable places around the world. Stepping on each other’s toes in massively crowded cities. Living in trees, underground, in tin cans under water, and in tin cans in space.

There are now legitimate plans underway to build underwater cities. We are not too far off from creating habitats in space and the moon, and inevitably, Mars. Exo planets beware.

We are a restless species, always on the move, seeking familial and personal advantages in our movements around our cities, states, regions, the planet. Ever since our ancestors decided to start walking out of Africa, for food, for safety, or possibly, just to see what is out there, constant movement is in our genes.

We are also a cunningly adaptive species, seeking more elbow room while continuing to increase our numbers, subjugating this planet further for our wants and needs.

Mother Nature will on occasion throw us warning shots - massive storms, droughts, floods, pandemics. “Hey, you are not the only species on this planet,” she forewarns. More is on the way. Behave.

We sometimes learn from such motherly advice, make plans and policies for the next storm or pandemic, but as danger and crisis recede, we soon forget.

Here I am on one evening, walking around a crowded room thinking of the curious fish I encountered a couple weeks earlier, swimming in close-knit schools for safety and to help evade predators.

In the meantime, in this crowded event venue, filled with clusters of chatting, laughing, socializing humans, I’m seeking a corner, an empty spot, a break in the crowd, for just a bit more elbow room.
