My brother and I played a lot when we were young. I was sometimes mean and teased him too much.

I suppose I was writing just the absolute first thing occurred to me, keeping in mind that Olaia and Jaimito were only 4 and 1 at the time.  Was it a lesson for them in case I never came back?  Don’t tease your brother/sister.  Play a lot together.  Or maybe you should tease each other, just not too much.  Chuckle. 

Probably it was because the hour of my departure drew near.  I was tired and anxious.  I scribbled it down, stressed, worried, and in the process of re-evaluating everything in my life.
