Six-year-old David learns quickly that life is not always what is expected. He has just overheard a devastating conversation between his parents and his understanding of the world has just been shattered. Because of this, David begins making choices that are not always the best for not only him as a child, but for peers and for him as he enters young adulthood.
Follow his exploration of life from age 6 to age 17, as he discovers that things in life are not always as they present on the surface. Meet his friends along the way, some of whom he gets in trouble and some who get him in trouble. David experiences hardships and consequences as he navigates growing into a young man.
David makes assumptions about his teachers, classmates, ministers, neighbors, even his parents and as he does, the readers learn that no one really knows what goes on behind closed doors. Everyone has something no matter how perfect a façade may be presented. No one's life is perfect and everyone has areas of pain and stress. Experience both highs and lows of David's journey, as well as those people he encounters along the way, as he discovers there are always consequences for choices. Find out how an ultimate decision of David's forever changes his future.
