Brothers, what do we have to do with them? I know that right now you will once again jump off from your chair and yell :"WTF r u on again. First family, and now brother. Is there something wrong with you?" LOL, i have to admit that family and other emotional relative subject will be last thing I want to write in my life. However there is certain point in life you just want to say about something that you really dont want to. Sometimes something hits u in the head, and then you think, wat u should do?
LIke any brothers we have fights all the time. The good thing is they are stopped. The bad thing is our last fight was 6 years ago. Seriously I have never quite agree with him for so many thing in my life. There was a time that I almost get rid of him with a knife. I even smashed his favorite guitar when I was around 5 and tried to fix again when I was 20. Eventhough I do not agree with him on so many stuffs, I have to admit that I am a copy of him.
There is nothing better than having a brother who was not perfect, but wanted you to be perfect. I can see right now that I am doing so many thing that assemble him. We were 6 years away from each other. There were so many rummor that my mom decided to have me like a back up kid. It might be true, but I do not give a dam. Why? Because I was born. Why? Because I had my brother. In fact I was not quite close to my brother as I used to be after 8th grade. But before that we were always together. Right now, it makes me think that, the world can be a better place without personal computer.
After I had my computer at 8th grade, I was not too closed to my brother, and since he was quite in college, we could not have been like before. But well, before that was great. THe feeling that you always have someone to answer all your question, correct u what u did wrong, and forgive you for all the fight the you brought was the most preciousthing on earth. I grew up like that, a part copy of my brother. He forced me to read some books, told me what to do sometimes, and lead me to the world of music in which I have gone way further than him.
I am grateful to have a brother to look up to and learn from. But I am also grateful that I am not what he is. To me, that is the great thing about brothers. They help you to understand your path, see it, analyze it. They make you to pick up your own tools, and when you come into the world, you become something else not like him, but basically him.
I remember the scene from Full Metal Alchemist where Ed asked Alphonso that if he would hate him because Ed had tranfered Al's soul into the armor. Al said no. And that was the touching moment in the anime, to me. It's touching because I had a brother like that. He had put me into an armor and help me to be ready for anything in life. So my friend, the lesson from this blog is that, if you are an older brother lets try to put your youngers to an armor. If you are the youngers, save that armor and move on and remember to always forgive your brothers.

Very touching. It is great that you are reflecting on the important things in life and realizing how they have contributed to the great person you are today. Maybe, you should tell these people how you feel or at least have them read your blog.
