Sonny's Blues

I'm not sure I found this story moving at all. I feel like the author was trying to go for a moving effect, but I just didn't feel it. I feel that this story was maybe more so a real account about real life siblings. The fact that the narrator chose the easy way out by not contacting Sonny when Sonny really could have benifited from the comfort and help he could have offered. Isn't this they way most people chose? The easy way out so you don't have to confront your feeling and you can avoid being hurt? In the end, I think, he finally learned what Sonny did to comfort himself and that maybe, just maybe, Sonny wasn't any different then he was. In the end we are all the same. We all hurt and we all s,mile. Just because we do these things in different ways and handle each situation differently doesn't make anyone any better than any one else.
