How can anyone take a chance When their only opportunity is a passing glance? How do people find inspiration When contained in a fraction of the nation?

Kevin tightened his grip on the steering wheel and steeped harder on his accelerator. “I’m giving you a very special treat, Sandy; because you did well on your—chemo.” Kevin pulled over and hurried to get the door for Sandra.
