I love my brother



It's so simple to say some things.  Harder to capture the soul on a page of words.  Yet I opened my e-mail at work, and there is a piece of my brother showing up on the screen.  Granted, it wasn't (originally) written for me, but it gets a smile and a pause of fresh air.  It's at the end of the e-mail; right after rain clears from behind my eyes, and the wet drops dry, leaving me shivering inside when that cold after-the-storm wind caresses me, that I see why I received this small part of who he is inside. 

A thank you.

Funnily put in a mocking overtone of idiocy for the past ideals, true.  Even so, I get a moment of joy for having such a wonderful soul in my life. 

Don't you just love family!
