A "brother" can remain "big" only until the narrow bridge into adulthood has been crossed. Beyond it he should remain what we all should be to each other: simply brothers.
As time and eternity are identical beyond what we see as "life-spans", the concepts which remain beyond our short, conscious passings through our individual life-times, should be seen, considered and understood at their ab-ovo value and meaning, bare-stripped of all unnecessary loads of mor(t)ality.
Mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters to each other, living out the seeds of common sense within us...
Alas, our eyes are already sore, tormented by the inherited grains of quicksand, of generations upon generations of heirs to "that" arche-authority which sits distant, quiet and obnoxious about the whatever origins of this...
Unfortunately, life can never be what - hopefully - should have been; no one can walk naked anymore in some daydreamed Eden gardens, without the prospect of a planned rape nearby.
