15. Interesting question!
My brother and I had quite the interest in music, especially playing together at a younger age. As time persisted, our lives went different ways for various reasons. I always think about what may have happened:)

The thought that gets me is when my mother remarried. She married someone that had an alternative view to our lifestyle. This is when the fissure opened.
