Good evening. I have a question: what does mean "huckleberry friend"?

[peacetraveler22]

It means a very close friend, someone who will stand by your side no matter what. The term derived from the Mark Twain novel "Huckleberry Finn." Huckleberry Finn stood by Jim (black slave in the book), when it would have been easier to just sell him off. Does it make sense to you?

I see. Can you explaine the kind of the berry? Good be a pic

Huckleberry Finn is a small boy, and main character in the book. It's not a reference to a fruit or berry. You can read about him here - http://twain.lib.virginia.edu/huckfinn/huchompg.html. One of the most legendary and well-known characters in American literature.

I have a brother and sister. My sister younger than me for three years, and my brother - for six years. :)

[peacetraveler22]

Do you resemble each other in appearance? I don't think my sister and I look too much alike, besides the fact we both have curly hair.

My brother looks like me. Look at his photo:

[peacetraveler22]

Cool, thanks for the photos! Yes, you and your brother look alike. Handsome. :)

You look so nice together! I agree, to be a mother is the most beautiful and most important job on Earth. But not every woman is born to be a good mother.
My late brother was (he died in 2010, lung cancer) my best friend. I have a sister too, but we aren't so close, we are too different. But we are the last of our generation left, so we keep in touch, but online only, we are too far.

Sorry about your loss. My mom's oldest sister died a few years ago, and I still miss her to this day. She was ill for a long time. Her passing wasn't unexpected, but you can never fully prepare yourself for when it happens. Yes, many mothers are not loving or caring, and they produce damaged adults. I'm not sure I would be a good mom, but I've never had a strong desire for children, so the point is moot.

ho-ho-ho
I have 3 brothers and 1 sister.
Sister is youngest and the most beloved.

[peacetraveler22]

I think you would be a good big brother! Protect her from all the bad boys! :))

[fareastener]

Any potentially bad boy meet with my shotgun first :)

[peacetraveler22]

I always wanted an older brother to protect me. But in America, many women can shoot. So beware. :))
