Seperation

A day or two ago my mother got the news that the foreign exchange program, in which my brother signed up for, wants to interview him as well as my family. I am both overjoyed and sadly depressed at the same time. If they accept him, that means he will have a year to grow and explore a whole new world in Spain. But at the same time if they accept him that means we will be seperated from me from a whole year. I could never imagine life without my brother by my side. We were meant to stick together; and have never been apart for a long  period of time let alone a year. It seems like this will be the first step of a new beginning and chapter of my brother's life. It is also a dip in the water of truly branching into my own person as well. Since we were small I have always followed and been  a little shadow to my brother in any and everyway. I've looked up to him even though we are almost exact in age. His opinion is one that I truly do take into consideration when doing anything. I don't know how I am going to live without him without falling apart or cracking but I am going to try my best. This to me seems like just a preperation for when we are out of school and have to go our own ways and part to colleges and such. But, it won't take away the fact of how much I will really miss him through the time he is gone. Love you chur

That's very sweet Danielle and I can't imagine having to separate from my loved ones either. It's a very difficult situation because you have grown so used to that person being by your side and guiding you. When I was little, I was parted away from my mother for a couple of months and I was very little so it didn't matter that much. However, thinking about it now makes me feel depressed. It's difficult, I understand but life is full of changes. You will find a way to get used to it somehow. It's complicated but time will heal the pain. I have learned that lesson many times in my life.
