Jesse finds himself falling headfirst into a phase of his life that is sudden and unforgiving. On a day that starts with a bad audition, continues with an eviction, and ends with sleeping on a friend's couch, Jesse confesses, to himself and to his journal, that he is bitterly unhappy.

But an unexpected conversation with his grandfather helps Jesse unearth an internal courageous self; a courageous self that gently guides Jesse toward an inner strength that allows him to let go and give himself to life's ever-changing journey.
