Love this "My little brother set me on this path. He said I could have exactly the life I really wanted and to ponder such a fact deeply. I listened to him. I still do."
This is lovely! How beautifully you honour your relationship with your little brother. I also love the weekly Wednesday ritual; you seek and offer strength in a friendship that transcends the barriers of the past.
And, finally, a reminder to every writer—that the thing that we really want is free of cost. (Although it may exact other tolls on us!)
Oh, hell yeah on those other tolls, but it's all "grist for the mill," right? Thank you for these comments and what stood out for you as poignant and meaningful.
