When I was young, I dreamed of becoming a professional soccer player. My best friend (Bryan) and I would spend hours passing, kicking, shooting, chasing, dribbling, and talking about life as famous soccer stars. We started out in kindergarten and we were very successful. We played a lot of soccer, we won a lot of championships, we shared laughter and we shared tears in defeat. We. The common word here is We. We were a team. We would not be separated. Our families respected and cared for one another. We were brothers.
