Gratitude

Dear, Dameon

My dearest big brother (and my only brother) and one of my greatest friends, I know how many times I've argued with you in the past, and probably will in the future. However, besides the sibling dysfunction we have occasionally; I want to tell you how much I appreciate having you in my life, and having you as my brother.
You're undoubtablely the best brother there is or ever was. You're always there when I need advice or help with ... anything, just as you continually promise me. And you always know what to do to make me happy when I'm mad, sad, or just bored.
You're also the smartest person I know (besides Daddy, and maybe our big sister Cassy), always having the cool or amazing information that you generously spread to everyone. When I listen to you talking about something you like or something important that a person really should know, somehow it drives me to learn more cool stuff so that I can wow you with a piece of knowledge, at least once since it hasn't happened yet.
Sure you can be a bit annoying, and you're hard to shop for during the holidays, but every human has some flaws that help make them special. Plus, you have more good qualities than bad.
I also love how tight we are as siblings - My best friend has a big brother, but she and he hate each other. I've never heard them compliment each other despite being siblings, let alone say "I love you". Looking at how you and I get alone and how much we love each other compared to siblings like my friends, it makes my feel happy to know that you and I would never get into a situation where one of us would say "I hate you." It'll always be "I love you."
So thank you Dameon, for being in my life and always being yourself, and thank you for always being there for me.
