It inspires Tom to change his life. Tom emerges from drug rehab a new man, taking self-revelation and being reborn to new heights as he embarks on a spiritual adventure, journey quest in psyche back to his youth in the voice of a ten-year-old child in search of the truth of how he made such a mess of his mind as he rewrites his past trauma and lows into highs because he was still an angel in God's eyes. Young Tom starts life as a fatherless child of a broken home-neglected with no role models or discipline. His curious nature for adventure in a world with no fences finds him running wild in the streets of south St. Louis and two years behind from failing in school.

Feeling insecure and inadequate with low self-esteem, he's falling fast as he searches for truth and facts to fix what is broken like new to rise up and account before he falls through the cracks.
