Hardest Day of my Life

Today was very difficult for me. I asked my brother to leave. He had been staying with me for the past month or so, and things just weren't working out. I've always been there for my brother, and I feel like I've really let him down. After he left, I began to cry because I've never had to do anything like that before. Usually, I'm the one who gets asked to leave. My brother is following in my footsteps (to a degree), and it's not necessarily a good thing. After high school, I moved out and lived with my girlfriend from that time period. Things immediately went to hell after that. Then after we quit living together, I bounced around from home to home until I learned the lesson about independence. I hope he finds happiness soon. I hope I haven't lost his trust and confidence. I'd do anything for him, after all, that's why I let him stay for a while. Matt, if you're reading this, please let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. I didn't give up on you, I just didn't want you to be there when my world comes crashing down (which isn't far off on the event horizon).
