Dave Moore is desperate to finding his runaway son and even contemplated suicide. His thoughts wonder as he takes a journey in his car to find his son with very few clues to go on. His son does not want to let his father down by his declining grades so he bought a bus ticket and went south, leaving on a bus with only a note left to his parents. The notes says, “Dad, this is the most difficult decision I have ever had to make,” he wrote. “I would rather brave this tough world alone than feel like I’ve let you down or failed you.”
On Day One while working at the warehouse Dave Moore did what he always did; worked hard, do his job, and get home.

In a frantic state, Dave Moore went on a mission to find his son with little to go on but nevertheless left that moment to search.
The pages are filled with the heartfelt tears of any parent’s nightmare when a child leaves the home especially unexpected. During his search Dave Moore made a “deal” with God.

I will never leave you; I will always be part of the solution ever part of the problem again.” (Page 85).… (more)
