I received this yesterday from my brother he had hand written this, mailed it to me. I don't no if he wrote this or copied it. But it hit home to the way I see my brother. The way his life has been as a caring man . Also as he was when on drugs. What he really done to his self. Also I no the compassion he has for little children whos Dad and Mom have left them, and not tryed to be a part of their children life. (He never had children) We were a family of 6 children who grew up in a home with both parents. He was the baby of us 6. Age 54. So I post this for my big baby brother! (I am his big sister, Mom, friend.)

I Cried Yesterday
I came home, went straight to my room, set on the edge of my bed, kicked off my shoes and I had myself a good cry.
I'm telling you,
I cried until my ears were "hot" I cried until my head was hurting so "Bad" that I could hardly see the pile of soiled tissue lying on the floor at my feet!
I want you to understand, I had myself a really good cry yesterday.
Yesterday, I cried,
for all the days that I was too busy, or too tired, or too mad to cry.
I cried for all the days, and all the ways; and all the times I had dishonored, disrespected, and disconnected, my self From myself, Only to have it reflected back to me in ways others did me,
the same things I had already done to myself!
I cried for all the things I had given, only to have them stolen; for all the things I had asked for that had yet to show up;
for all the things I had accomplished, only to give them away, to people in cirumstances, which left me feeling empty, and battered and plain old used!
I cried until my nose was running all over the new shirt I got on sale.
I cried because there really does come a time when the Only thing left for you to do is cry.
Yesterday, I cried
I cried because little boys get left by their daddies; and little girls get forgotten by their mommies;

:o Blessings to you , I am so glad sweetie that you got that
Pain out it doesnt take away every pain in your life that you
Have ever felt , but it sure helps a whole lot. This cry will
Allow you to be more confident in your life , be there even
More for your brother as a friend and guidance in his life.
And always know GOD has your back and your brothers
He will see you both thru this , he holds the answer and the key
To your brothers freedom, who knows why are loved ones get
The lessons that they get , I tell my brother who is also locked
Down,(for life) in federal prison that GOD is using him for one
Reason or another and in the end a blessing will come.
You have to hold onto your faith sweetie it will be alright
For tommorow is a new day, blessings to you and your brother

Love another sister who's brother is also in
We will overcome.........KIMI06:)

KIMO6, I am sorry for your pain, and your brothers. I have accepted my brothers wrongs in life and try to live a christian life. I have never been in jail or prison, but been to court with my brother a few times.
I think this was a way my brother was reading HIS PAIN, as he had went thru life for 54 yrs. (or since about 20 ) when he first started doing drugs. He has never done them in front of me!! He respect me, and no he would have big sister raft on him. hehe.
I READ IT AND WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH OTHERS. MAYBE HE HAS DONE SOME SOUL SEARCHING THE PAST 8 MO. He has 34 mo to go. With good time and HWH.
