Legos and Life

Legos were the best thing ever, I could create countless alternate universes with them and build their life and story along with it, it was all up to my imagination and creativity. Particularly the FRIENDS legos, I even had a whole encyclopedia about each and every character and I would read it every night before bed. But it was not just legos, it was a way for me to bond with my brother. My brother and I would be cooped up in my basement while he built his own legos and we joined our universe and created different stories. His Spiderman action figure and Else Barbie joined the universe as well. My brother and I fought a lot and legos are one thing that he and I could do together while simply getting along. I was able to enjoy my brother's company through my Legos and we got along for once. I don't really play with legos as much anymore, maybe their tiny plastic bodies got boring at some point like all toys do, and I don't even know where my FRIENDS encyclopedia is, but I miss the simple times in which my brother and I could relax with our legos and not have a care in the world. 

Now we barely fight and honestly, I would like to thank that to my legos and our dolls, but whenever I walk past the toy section at Walmart I have the urge to buy all their Lego sets in bulk and stay in our basement for hours building different lives.
