One lost is one gained.
So this summer I lost the person that means the most to me. The one who stood by me when all others left. He was my rock and I know that he is still here with me now as I write this. It had to have been my brother who sent Moise my way. He didn’t bring Moise into Paris’ life but he brought both of them back to me. I think that in some way he knew I would need some watching over. The first time I met Moise, he told me that he was going to take care of me and watch out for me while I am here at Lee. I took what he said just like how I had taken everybody else’s, he wasn’t going to stick around. He did more than stick around. He asked me the other night why I chose him and I told him that unlike the others, he followed through. “Moise, from the moment I met you, I had a feeling that you would be different and you were. You have made sure that I am ok and that I have my homework done and I am studying. You have cared for me as a big brother and that is something I never expected to feel again. Thank you.”
