I am sure you are reading these as well. You are the least of my concerns right now. How ever don’t think that takes you off the list. You are the easiest to forgive out of everyone, I’ve always felt sorry for you. You were just a weak middle child who followed the leader all his life. In fact, I think he used you to do his dirty work. You just went with the flow because it was easy. I find that sad because I never laughed at you like your older brother did.
.
There’s two things I feel guilty for with you and that is all. I felt you could do better with a girlfriend in the past. She was your attempt at a friend and I’m not sure I had the right to let my thoughts out. I think that was more of a state of mind from being pushed down so far. The other thing is my words to you on being in the Trades. I told you that you wouldn’t make it. Again, letting this out was the result of all the things that have been said to me throughout the years and my words pale in comparison to yours. They even pale greatly in comparison to Jim’s on you and employment.
.
You wouldn’t have made it. Being in the Trades is not about doing as little as you can while getting the most. It doesn’t work that way and you’d learn that pretty damn quick. You’d quit. You used to laugh at me for who I worked for and what you seen me go through. Yes Mike, I worked for one of the hardest guys in town. His nickname was the Snake, there was absolutely no cheating him. He now works directly for Daniel Bosa. He was terrible to work for, yet at the same time I foresaw something you didn’t. The harder I had it, the better I would become. I was taught old school and in his words I was one of his best two students. That means he did very well off of me. I landed on that hard path in life because of you two idiots.
.
When everything is neutral I hear you whine that you should have left this house earlier and bought something sooner. If there’s any hint of me getting more than you, the next words I hear are that you only left because of me. You know what Michael? Perhaps you should thank me for what you have. I made it hard on you because you’d walk around here with a chip on your shoulder stating you didn’t give a “@$#%” about mom and dad. It was all about you for mom and dad were just “using” us. You even laughed as you intentionally blocked me from working on area’s of this house. You should thank me, if it wasn’t for me you would not have bought anything.
.
In interests of keeping things short, I’ll be brief. As an adult you attacked me because your dog ate my shoes. I simply politely let you know that you had to buy me new ones. That brought on a physical attack from you. I bet you remember you that. It was like riding a bull wasn’t it? The one you bullied finally was giving something back. You were so scared you had to call for mommy. Then you lied and tried twisting the story. Maybe one day I’ll write out that story, including the following discussion upstairs in the kitchen.
.
I could write out a lot of stories, I remember your words through all the years. I also remember your actions. I used to find it strange that you’d complain you didn’t come here as an adult because of me. You complained you are uncomfortable. Why? I offered you dinner when I cooked? It’s ironic because as a boy I couldn’t play on my own driveway, you’d lead your friends into teasing me. I think the truth is that it’s simply been your excuse for doing as little as you can. If it wasn’t for Jim, for the most part I think you would have stayed out of the financial relationship between mother and I. I know you feel guilt, I know you’ve shown some respect, I have seen it.
.
However, I am not foolish. I watched you become a good caring boy along with the others as you used to come by and take mom out for dinner six / seven years ago. Knowing she was drawing up her will wouldn’t have had anything to do with that would it? You’re such a lazy clown you packed all that snow on the driveway for her to walk on, leaving me to pick off the ice afterwards. That driveway was enough work to keep clear every year without your “help”. You of course would know that, you hated shovelling it.
.
I’ll likely edit this and improve it, but you’re not my main concern right now. Perhaps you can think about explaining something. Why would a guy who’s life motto of doing the least he possibly can while getting the most come to me five or six years ago and proudly rub it in my face that he’s going to come into money one day? What would he be referring to? Would it be anything remotely to do with the same reasons you clowns fifteen to twenty years ago were rubbing your hands together? Where else would a guy like you come into money? I hope you can explain yourself.
