Then fate hurled a blizzard his way. As the candle of his life flickered in a hospital room, he finally understood: the arguments he'd once seen as thorns had been his parents' clumsy way of protecting him. The friendships that had faded concealed unspoken blessings.
It turned out that time had long ago brewed the most precious love into starlight, guiding him along every step of his journey.
