Another Day

This last week I've been missing my brother a lot. I'm not used to going so long without communication, and I finally broke down and sobbed today. I miss him so much. It's so frustrating not being able to explain to him the garbage he's being fed (in addition to regular dinners of spam and hot pockets). I sent him an email today, to let him know that I'm here for him, that I love him, that I miss him. He's so angry....very angry. I don't blame him. If I listened to the bullshit that my mom fed me I'd be angry at everyone else but those responsible too. Not much I can do at this point, and it's such a powerless feeling. I want to shake him, tell him that she's wrong, that his father is wrong, that their druggie roommate is wrong, that being an alcoholic, a drug addict, is not COOL. I just hope that I can continue to remind him that I love him as if he came from my own womb, and hope that he finds his path. David Cook sings a song, Come Back To Me, and every time I hear it I think of my little bro. I just hope he finds his path before it's too late.

  2. I miss him too. I'm sure he'll figure things out as he gets older. Maybe he just needs to be shocked out of it or something. Hugs and enjoy your concert tonight.
