joe, bro, bro, bro…

-inspired by stories found in genesis-

(to the GREAT joseph… the one who perhaps saved egypt, the one whose coat got him in trouble more than once, and the one whose dreams were both his downfall and his uprising… yeah… THAT guy!)

joe… you had quite the interesting life my friend. you were an outspoken dreamer! it made your family mad, but you weren’t scurred… you knew you were meant for more!  even when your jealous bros sold you into slavery, you kept your head up, and kept on keeping on! you were an honest servant! honestly serving your way right to prison. you served while you were there too! when your big promotion came, you proved yourself, and stepped into the spotlight. and when your-long-lost-but-not-forgotten-semi-evil-jealous-brothers showed up, you were a better man than i. i  would have seen this as my shot at redemption! you saw it as your shot at graceful living! so here’s to you, my-middle-name-of-a-friend! thanks for living a determined, graceful, dream-BIG-live-GREAT lifestlye!
