"I wake up every morning imagining what life would have been like if I had a somewhat normal childhood, a somewhat normal adolescence or just a stable environment. I was brought up with none of the above. As humans, we are equipped with the sole survival skills to be strong in order to survive."Sal is a teenager on a journey from his unwarranted hardship and turmoil, to a dream of making it to college and having a better life while chasing his ultimate dream to play basketball. This keeps him going through the struggle and obstacles he faces such as abuse, homelessness, poverty and starvation, but he never gives up hope for a brighter day. Finding his savior through basketball, and finding God to guide him through with faith to achieve his destiny, Sal starts his journey from Philadelphia, coming across many inspirations along the rough road he has traveled throughout the country searching for happiness and a place to call home. Can a young teen from the urban city of Philadelphia find his way out and reach his goals to end up a success, or will he just be another statistic?
