A Boy in the South Western Bronx pleads that the screaming will stop and that his parents will stop confusing punishing him with acting out viciously and uncontrollably! This boy often speaks of a dream of his, " One Day, I will be in California."
The Woeful and decaying neighborhoods of his childhood never afford him much security and peace. He grows up and childhood whispered promises and intentions seem to be foolishl and easily dismissed, set-aside and forgotten as the years pass by.
Summer 2006, A 51 Year Old Man stands outside Lindburg Airport in san Diego. He is in The state Of California. He postrateshimself and kisses the sidewalk.
" I was right, I did get here!" he says with tears in his eyes. 5 Days later, After working with Friends From Arlington Virginia's Grace Community Church to build 2 homes outside and above Tecate, Mexico, He is startled to be spending an afternoon at The Posh La Joya Beach. " wow, You have now lived in The Bronx and seen This Beach and the Pacific OPcean.
He does not yet know the song- but if he had, at that point, He would have worshiped His God by singing , " There can be miracles, WHEN YOU BELIEVE..."
You simply just NEVER KNOW !
