12．I have a younger brother．To me，he is a fourteen-year-old kid named Joe，with blond hair and blue eyes．To others，he is different．Where I see a kid who just needs a lot more attention，others see a mentally disabled boy，a kid who cannot walk or talk or think for himself．I see someone who just makes daily routine a bit less routine．Others see an annoyance，a bother．
This is not to say that I have never felt resentful（怨恨的） toward Joe．He is my brother，and with that comes responsibility．"Gina，could you stay in tonight and watch your brother？""Gina，do me a favor and feed him dinner and change his diaper（尿布） later，please？""Could you come home right after school today and get Joe off the bus？"

However，the small amount of resentment I feel toward my brother is erased a thousand times over by what I have learned from him．Besides making me responsible from a young age，and helping me be more accepting of all kinds of people，he has taught me to be thankful for what I have．
I know that there are moment in my life that I should cherish and that Joe will never experience．He will never laugh so hard that he cries．He will never feel the glory of a straight-A report card．He will never comfort a best friend crying on his shoulder．And he will never know how much his family love him．
Because he will never know，it is up to me to know，every second，how lucky I am．It is up to me to realize that life should be lived to its fullest，and that you should always，always be grateful that God，or whoever are the powers that be，gave you the ability to live your life the way you were meant to live it．
