"Killing a bear won't do you any good." Denahi tells her. "Says the boy that went after a bear after thinking it took his brother's life..." she walks past him and hurries into the dark, cold wilderness.
It's amazing how one little choice can change a life. Not just for you, but for everyone around you. I knew that our family welcoming in a foster child would change things, but I never imagined how much. I never imagined the burden my new brother carried. But he didn't have to carry that weight on his own any longer.
Sometimes family wasn't linked by blood.
Sometimes a brother comes when you least expect it.
Sometimes adventure comes when you step out by faith.
Sometimes family is all you have
Sometimes love leads to pain.
But I'd embrace the pain all over again for him. Because really, we were all that he had.
