Hi About Time,

‍

I am Aidan. I am 30 and currently live at Hostel MRC. I wrote this for my Brothers and their Brothers.

‍

Where would we really be without our Brothers.

‍

Send my love to my Brothers past and the lonely left along the way, I who left will write.

‍

Thank you and I hope these words help with a loss or even ease the pain of a bad decision.

‍

Love you all and miss my long lost home Port Phillip, “PPP”.
