the last time I was truly amazed by anything was the first time I ever saw my little brother run.

Some of you have met him
most of you have not
I'm 9 years older but he is at least a full foot taller
I knew he ran cross country in HS but due to circumstances I could never attend any of his meets and this always made me very sad.

Well last year I finally got to see him run live and direct
We got off the train at Main Street and he had to take a bus back to the Ave so he could catch a second bus back to Long Island.
I saw his bus coming so I told him and began to run

MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
He started running and left me in the dust!
He was so fast and graceful.
Made it to the bus in literally 1 minute. It felt like I blinked and he was gone. I actually stopped running to process what I had just seen. My little brother, the same boy who was born 4 months premature. The same little boy that doctors said would not survive the night he was born now had the feet of Mercury himself.

I teared up after we said our goodbyes
He doesn't know that
but now you do.
