After
giving this much thought and deliberation, I have decided that the
most invaluable thing that I own from my childhood is actually a
gift that I was given at the age of 23.
I don't really have many things from my youth because I led a very
disjointed and fragmented life. I moved quite a bit, and material
objects proved to be fickle and hold very little significance or
sentimental/ emotional value to me. My relationship with my sister
is possibly the greatest gift I have obtained and earned through
right of passage transcending from youth to adulthood.
The attached photograph which was recently given to me is the greatest
reminder I have of the guiding spirit that always brings a smile
to my face and validates me as a person, friend, and most importantly
brother.
