    I lost my brother in '06 and I still have his number in my phone. That feeling never goes away. There are times where I wish, more than anything, I could just shoot him a text to let him know I'm okay. It's hard to lose a brother. It's literally losing your longest friend.

        I never really had family. Two of my best friends were killed 4 days before Christmas last year. I’ve never felt pain like that before and I don’t wish it on anyone.

        So sorry to hear that, Matthew. Does killed mean in a fatal accident or through violence?

        They were OTR truckers. Kezzy was 22, Patrick 24. Patrick was driving and struck a piece of construction equipment left hanging over the freeway at about 2am on 12-21-17.pic.twitter.com/ZAxUhvEwkg

        My parents were divorced when I was six. My Mom had to get a job and taking care of me during the day fell to my 10 year old brother. He passed away last year from pancreatic cancer.

        My thoughts are with you. I know that pain too well. It never completely goes away, and sometimes it sneaks up and punches you in the gut out of nowhere. But we persevere, if for anything, to honor their memory and to carry the weight of doing good in the world in their stead.

        I can't bring myself to erase the message my mom left on my voicemail. It's two years old now and she left it just before she got sick and died.

        Parents leave too soon. Children arrive too late. Siblings bookend our lives.
