Best Friend

My best friend is my brother. Lets see describle him? Well his always there for me no matter what. He wont talk crap about me. Not even if he gets mad at me he wont run to my mom. He is also always trying to help me get out of the foster care. I don’t think if I had my brother in my life I would get over half of the things I have. I really feel bad for being the one to show him drugs. It’s really hard to go on my home visits knowing that he is doing drugs because I’m the one that took them home. Ever time I get a home visit and I go talk to him he tells me about how he got drunk and how he had so much fun. I wish I would of never messed up his life that. That’s one thing I would take back is not showing him were to get drugs or even how to do them.

Alejandra,

Your story is very personal and thank you for sharing it. I can tell from your story how loving and caring of a person you are to your brother, especially that he is your best friend. I honestly wish that my brother is my best friend, but we are 10 years apart so I cannot tell him everything because he would not understand. You are a passionate writer and I would really want to see you writing more. Your story makes me think of my own personal life. I like the story because it came from your heart and I think that's very important. I know sometimes we make mistakes that affects other people, but you shouldn't blame yourself that your brother is using drugs. I bet he can decided for himself about those kind of things. I tell you I kind of blame myself when my grandpa died, because I left him and moved to America. My point is that instead of thinking about how your brother is using drugs because of you, just help him out and talk to him about it whatever you feel like telling him. Please write more stories!

I like how it is personal for you and I also has some voice in it. I also think that yes even though you feel like its all your fault its not really because my older brother did the same for me. He is the reason i started but not the reason i continued, but i also made my own choice to quit. So stop blaming yourself for these things.

Alejandra, my brother was always my best friend too. He always had my back and we hung out together all the time. We pretty much had the same friends. But I brought drugs into my brother's life too and I'm definitaly not proud. Just hang in there, because he has the ability to change. Dont beat yourself up.

I would say that my brother is my role modle.. He is 19 and has his head on straight which is a positive influence on me. I got the same feeling as you do towards your brother.
