When people grow and change it's amazing where they wind up. Kevin came from GBN a school that was populated by the privileged, but he wanted to see more and understand more.

They say they have keys to homes they may never be able to go back to. I really enjoyed this piece Michael. When people grow and change it’s amazing where they wind up.
