I never got over the death of my step brother T.J. He had MS, and i remember, a few weekends before he passed away, it was the 4th of July. I didn't want to go up on the hill with him and his friend James, so I stayed at the trailer, watching the moths play around the street light. It was real dark, but I watched a moth get bullied by the street light. Dad had the sprinkler running earlier, so there was a small stream of water running down the sidewalk. The moth that was thrown from the air proceeded to kill himself in the water. Oddly enough, about a moth after-wards, Mom gets a call from Dad or Jodi, saying T.J. passed away.
So I think to myself, I passed up the last opportunity to see my step-brother to watch a moth kill itself.

I'm so sorry... I wish I could go back and see you one last time...
