There were good times
And bad times
But mostly good
Back there were we grew up
It wasn't the town we were born
Yet we were raised there as kids
But every return there has been good
Like going to a second home.

We all chose different places to settle down
All chose different paths
Yet our paths and lives
Still weave and entwine with eachothers
Lived with you my older brother
Watched my little brothers grown into men
Looked after them when mam n dad splitt
Cared for them when mam was too weak through chemo
And became their guardian when mam passed away
A time I never expected at all
Thought mam would be around forever
Yet also thought back then
I would never see my 25th birthday
Never really dealt with loosing my mam
But some how got through those times.

My life is dedicated to Nat now
But back then making sure my little brothers
Had a roof over the heads
And food on the table was my duty
Times change
life goes on.

My only advice on life is 'enjoy'
Enjoy every little moment you share with others
For we can't be sure if they will still be here tomorrow
Enjoy and treasure every memory you make
Enjoy every sunrise
Enjoy every sunset
Be happy with what you have in life
No matter how little it is
You might find people who have a lot or too much could be
                                                                         still very unhappy.

Enjoy your life and keep on living for a lot of us are dying and have no choice.

Life is precious.
