Well today I attended the 8th grade culmination of my little brother Cole. It brought many things to my attention today. One of those thoughts is how proud I am to have such a great younger brother. He is personable enough to become President, athletic enough to become a professional athlete and smart enough to become the worlds next great engineer. His future is so bright and limitless so much in fact that he inspires me to be better for HIM.
Me being his big brother, I have always understood that he looks up to me, imitates what I do, and compares his life goals and accomplishments to mine. Sure I haven't gone down the IVY League path that I want for him, but I can still help him accomplish that. I realized today that time does nothing but speed up day by day. It feels like it was just yesterday when my little brother was being born in 2000 and I was in middle school and now he's finishing middle school.
Its a humbling experience to see him finish middle school at the top of his class and still want to be like me even though I didn't do as well as him in school. I feel like he believes in me more than I do myself sometimes. I met some of his friends and their families today and all I heard was " I hear so much about you from cole", " oh so you the amazing older brother". I must being doing something right and i hope I continue to do so.
Im excited for what my future holds and even more so what my brothers, and knowing that what I do and the decisions I make affect not only me but him as well continues to push me to new levels and keep me from even thinking about settling for anything but the best. Today Made me reevaluate what I do myself and the time and effort I put towards my passion....and I need to do more. Here is one step towards doing more; this is a blog and I have never written about anything, welp here is my first collection of words for you guys and I hope you enjoy and I will make sure to share more.
Congrats Cole, Love you Bro
