Life is good, you know? God is good. Everything is good. But. . .

Having to face people is tough. Looking at someone you love but who doesn't love you back. Who turns their face to ignore you when you walk past them. Or who just forgets about you, and shuts you out. It hurts, you know? To invest so much of your heart in a person, only to have them write you off as unimportant.

It makes me appreciate the real brother that I do have. I've been making a conscious effort to look at him differently. As my brother whom I need to look out for, instead of just as an annoyance. Someday he'll grow up and not be an annoying little kid, and I want us to be friends. Because brothers should be friends. Especially since friends don't make very good brothers.
