Waking up, working, paying the bills, taking care of family and getting by, is the road most Americans follow until the day they die. Reaching for impossible dreams and risking all dignity to get the life they deserve, makes for good movies and powerful speeches by life coaches on TV. It’s not a real and plausible way to live. But to her, it’s the only way to live. She cannot walk down the same streets of her life for another year. Going against the counsel of erudite family members, she makes her own self-made path to freedom. She leaves her steady 9 to 5 in Alabama, and follows her shaky writing career to Maine. A new house, a new relationship, and a real career all fall into place because of the chance she took. But the once successful route she was on starts to take her down avenues she never thought she’d see, and everything falls apart bit by bit. So the true test of her faith calls for her to either use the same soul surviving radical faith to get her on track again. Or accept defeat and head back in the direction of a dead end life.
