Brothers
Dean, my brother had not remembered Tuesday was my birthday. Now before you jump all over him, we have not remembered each other birthdays since we were kids. But this year he got some grief about it. Remembering my birthday is not what makes Dean a great brother. He is a great brother because he is someone I am proud to know and he is still my brother. We have seen each other though a lot, and had outs. Like all brothers. So I am 35 and still want to be like my older brother.

Ok.
I have been reading this over and over for days now and wondered if I could add something to it.
I knew I wanted to add a cool quote or a some interesting thought or some nastalgic memory.
Because, HELL! that is me he is talking about so I should have some thought I can form into words.
Well I am just a fuck up and the words that would describe my brother the best are not in my head.
So here are some less than the best words

Dan you have been the brother that was standing where I was afraid to. You went and did stuff when I thought about doing stuff. You got hurt when I wanted to hide.
Thank you.
Since we have been old enough to be called adults, I have liked who you are.
Before that I was just a kid playing in the streets.
I love you.
