Life Vaules

Growing up, you dream about what your life will be like. You think about the job you will have, the house you will live in, the person you will marry and spend the rest of your life with. We also think about the jobs we will have the all the money and success we want to have. Well, here's a story of three man who have dreamed those exact dreams and are living the lives they have always wanted. There's just one small, tiny little catch. There's someone lurking in the corner of their dreams that they hadn't noticed before. Someone who doesn't want these three men to be the success they are. Mean and evil, he will stop at nothing to make sure the dreams of these three men, die.

Our first man, the youngest of the three. With an outlook on life that would rock any hipsters world, this young man has dreams of sipping coffee and making it big in the tech world. However, not wanting to be a total clique, this young man has decided that although he is very successful, he plans to live in a humble abode. A house made entirely of straw. Yes, straw. Now, by the looks of it, its an amazing place and you wouldn't even know. But Straw? I guess it's a millennial thing. I don't know, I'm old. But let's back track for a minute. Remember that nasty guy I mentioned a little bit ago. Yeah, he's not into hipsters or millennials. He's what you call, old school. The strait and narrow, no butts about it. No fuss and all business. You get the point. So, that bad guy is kind of the young guys boss. And well, he's not to fond of the young guy for reasons I just mentioned. It's so bad you guys, that something really awful happened, The OG claims he had nothing to do with the "mishap", but we all know, that's a lie, So here's what happened. Someone set the young mans house of fire. Straight up, in flames, no time to grab anything, completely demolished without a trace. Heartbroken and with nothing but the clothes on his back, the young man was taking in by he's bother, the middle child.

Now, being the middle child can be hard. Or so I've heard. But this guy has it going on. The perfect house, perfect wife, and the perfect job. Which by the way, he works at he same place as his younger bother. Which means, they both have the same boss. Can you kind of see where I'm going with this? Yeah, its gonna be bad. But, it's gonna be ok. Trust me. So here's what happens. The Middle bother decided, because it was going to be he's and he's wife's 7th wedding anniversary, that he would take some time off of work and surprise his wife with a romantic getaway to the Bahamas. They have really good jobs to afford to go to the Bahamas and fly first class and have their own private island, and....oh sorry. Anyways, back to the story. So, the happy couple is on this trip having a great time until they get the phone call from the younger bother. "Hi bro. Got some bad news. Someone came by the house while I was at work and you were away and tore down your house." Now this was an exquisite house. Custom build at of wood. What kind I don't know, but it's beautiful. Well, was beautiful. Needless to say, the middle bother came home with his wife, saw his custom made home that now looks like glorified match sticks, and call the oldest bother. " Hey bro, can I stay with you for awhile"? " Awesome! Oh, and I'm also bring my wife and our younger brother. See you soon!"

So here is where we are currently. The big bothers home. It's huge, its' beautiful , and, its' made of bricks. Classy. And of course, being the amazing big bother that he is, he takes in his family in need, no questions asked. That's what family does. When in hard times, we take care of each other. But with that said, it was time to get down to business and find the culprit who was behind the burning and the wrecking ball of dreams. Oh, one more thing I forgot to mention. Yes, this bother also works at the same company and has the same Silver Fox of a boss as his younger bothers. Now, being in upper management and working closely to the original gangster, he had seen a thing or two and heard a thing or five, about the thing this guy was capable of doing if something happened he was less then pleased with. Guys, I'm telling you, this guy has been around and I'm pretty sure he's connected to the mob at this point cause what I'm about to tell you, is going to blow your mind. So, being the sophisticated adult that he is, The oldest brother decided to treat the boss to lunch one afternoon to he's favorite restaurant. He's plan in getting him to go was to talk about a huge multi-million dollar development the company was about to snatch for the win and discuss how the team should celebrate afterwards, Well, the plan took off with out a hitch and off to lunch they went. And while eating lobster and drinking champagne, that's what rich people do right?, things got heated. Without filter or remorse, the words came out like vomit. Gross, but you get what I mean. "I know what you are capable of and the lengths you will go until you are completely satisfied", said the bother. "Whatever do you mean?", ask the boss. "Admit what you did and I won't go to the police and have everything you have ever done to the good people who work for the company exposed!" The boss, leaning back in his chair, looks the older bother in the eyes as a sly smile creeps across his face. "You think I'm scared of a no body like you? You have no idea what I could do and what I am capable of. You want the truth? Fine, i'll tell you." Guys, this is crazy. Im on the edge of my seat. Are you? "Yes, I did it. I brunt the house of straw down and drive the wrecking ball into the house of wood myself. I have been around for a long time and I don't plan on going anywhere without knowing I'm on top and there is no one who can stop me or try and get in my way." Little boy, you couldn't touch me even if you tried," stated the boss. With a pit in his stomach, the oldest bother pulled out his phone that he had ever so discreetly put on speaker, on top of the table. With bright eyes and realizing what had just happened, the boss turned the palest shade of white known to man. "Hello Mr. Wolf, this is LAPD. we suggest you stay right were you are and corporate with police officers who are standing behind you." So yeah, he went to jail. We all saw it coming. But geez, the things this guy did was crazy right?!.

So the moral of the story is this. Just because you are in the eyes of oppression or a victim of wrong doings, don't dwell in the depths of those emotions. Rise above that and understand you are worth more than someone telling you can't go for your dreams, reach them, and retain them without feeling like something, or someone, is going take it all away. It is yours and no one can take that away from you. And even if they have, don't give up on the dream. You can start over and make an even bigger and better dream than before. And one more thing. Family. No matter how close or how far, the love of a family is far greater than any other kind of love. Cherish it and hold it close. Its value is priceless.
