It's about 7 am. 10/31/07. Yesterday we lost my little brother. John. We got the call that he had been rushed to the ER by ambulance around 5:15 and then about a 1/2 hour later we got the call that he was gone. If I hadn't had seen him touched his hand wept over him. I still don't think I'd be able to believe his passing. It's surreal. A 20 year old young man a better writer and artist than most could ever hope to be gone?I like to think of myself as a decent writer but I've found at the most crucial moments in my life I am going to what's already written. I don't know why that is. I woke up with lyrics from the musical RENT in my head.525,600 minutes,525,000 moments so dear.525,600 minutesHow do you measure decide a year?In daylights in sunsets,in midnightsIn cups of coffeeIn inches in miles in laughter in strife. In five hundred twenty-five thousand Six hundred minutesHow do you measureA year in the life?How about love?How about love?How about love?Measure in loveSeasons of love. Seasons of love525,600525,000Journeys to plan.525,600 minutesHow do you measure the lifeOf a woman or a man?In truths that she learned,Or in times that he cried. In bridges he burned,Or the way that she died. It's time now to sing out,Tho' the story never endsLet's celebrateRemember a year in the life of friendsRemember the love!That's of cover inadequate. But the sentiment stays. My love for my little brother has had many seasons the first of which started before he was born. He made me a big sister. What a gift! Though there are many times where I
that I filled that role poorly he loved me anyway. Family can be an interesting and honest mirror. You be into your loved ones and see elements of your own engrave some that you feel proud to call your own and others which you'd just as soon forget. John! His writing his art his amazingly generous and forgiving love of others. I wish that I am reflected there.
Married 5 years to the love of my life. Homeschooling mom of 12 year old daughter. T and miracle baby boy S who is 2. I am what my hubby calls a professional patient as I have rheumatoid arthritis and a host of other medical issues.
