It was a year ago in October, I was sitting down at my computer and for some reason thoughts of my half brothers came to my mind. I knew I had half brothers since I was 11. I had never met them in person and after 20 years I decided to try and find them.
Funny thing, I was fortunate to find them on Myspace. After a few messages we sent back and forth to each other, we exchanged phone numbers and spoke on the phone.
Not long into our conversation did I ask him about sports and if he was at all interested in them, since me and my older brother were very much into sports growing up. Come to find out he trains in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
I could not believe it! He also was beginning to train in boxing, which both our grandfather and father were amateur boxers.
It was really cool to hear one of my half brothers is training in BJJ. What are the odds!? He is a lot like me in many ways. I am happy to say that I will be meeting them for the first time next month.
