The clashes weren't so much in about culture b/c he isn't that far away. But the different points of view between me and him were really hard to navigate. <br />Some people think that nearly every place in your house should be spotless. You know I'm not one of those people. I have 3 kids. I have to look for jobs. I am blessed with a wonderful girlfriend and I love trying to improve our relationship, because she's worth it !! <br />My brother believes in a spotless house. It's hard for him to understand why I don't spend as much time being cleaner. I guess I just believe some things are more important (like staying employed!!). <br />I felt disappointed that he couldn't understand. I am glad your Mom was more understanding. I love the pictures you posted, Amel !

Do you remember when the dentist drilled into your teeth??<br /> When we went to this rural dentist, he would not give novacaine before drilling. We just sat there and took it. It became kind of a test of manhood when I was down on the farm! :) <br />I'm going to be here more, read blogs more...and yes, I'm going to write more.

How cool, a woman performing martial arts. <br />I like the idea of being built for peace. <br />Going to watch the clips now...<br />Did you ever watch a program called Monkey when you were younger? It was filmed in China I believe. The main character was a monkey man and his friend was pigsy. Monkey was a skilled fighter. I used to be transfixed by it. It also reminds me of happy family nights with my brother.
