"You know, the world is not always sunshine and rainbows. Sometimes it is a horrid and nasty place. And it doesn't matter how tough you are. Life will tear you down and leave you in its shadow, and it will keep you there forever if you let it. Neither you, me, or anyone else will be able to hit as hard as life, but it's not about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit, yet keep moving forward."

No one ever said the world was easy. No one said that you would slide right by in life without any problems. There's suffering, poverty, murder, hatred.... There's so much bad in the world, sometimes the good gets hidden under a shadow.

This story follows a few of many lost people and their individual struggles to get out of the dark and find some light in their life; even if they believe there is none. This is their journey to find the path they lost and persevere.
