What a Realization.

Every Friday in my Oral Comm. class, 3 people volunteer (or die being chose) to do a show & tell. So this past Friday, Blaze, Brittany, and Katy did one. Well, Blaze was the first up, and I was honestly excited. The kid's always interested me ... and annoyed me. But he set up a picture of a man in a navy uniform, took out 2 dog tags, and another picture. He passed around the second picture and dog tags, and later descrbed the standing picture to us, as his brother who is in the navy.


When he started talking about his brother, he told us that his brother was never the brother to push him away when his friends were there. He wasn't mean to him, and he always told him to do good. Always friendly, always nice, and always there to talk to Blaze when he needed things; this really made me think.


I have 2 younger siblings, and for the most part, I'm nice to them. I admit, I'll snap on them sometimes when they bother me, or when they yell at me, but like I said I'm usually nice to them. But after hearing about Blaze & his brother, I got a little upset, and I got some convictin. I realized that I wanted to be that to my siblings, or atleast my sister. So my parents went out last night, and I watched my siblings. My mom rented Just Dance 2 for us to play, and rented us a movie. So at like, 7:30 or so my sister and I went downstairs to play the Wii while my brother watched his show upstairs. At like 8:45, I told my sister I was going upstairs to watch Degrassi for a bit. So I put my brother to bed and watched TV. When I put my brother to bed, I kinda messed around with him a little, in a playful way, and it made me happy to see him smile when he went to bed. I went back downstairs after Degrassi (at 9:30) to put my sister to bed. When I she was all tucked in, I told her that she was a girl, and when she gets older she's going to face a lot of difficulties and problems in life. I also told her that whenever she needed someone, to come talk to me, because mom was too old and didn't understand ;) So she said ok, and that I was more the age anyways. (She listens to music while falling asleep), so I turned on her radio, and we danced to her music for like 10 seconds. Then she finally went to sleep.




Last night/Blaze's show&tell really made me appreciate them. It made think of my aunt, and how her relationship with her dad wasn't good before he passed away, and I realized that I didn't want that to happen with my siblings. I mean, it's a possibility. I want to be close to my parents/siblings forever, and I'm thankful that God gave me the siblings that I have now.
