New Beginning

No family is perfect, and neither is Alan's. Alan-like many-is born into a seemingly loving family. The only problem is, he has a twin sister, and from the moment she was born, she stole the spotlight. As they grow older, Alan feels cheated out of the love and support he desperately needs from his family-particularly, his father. Overtime, Alan works hard trying to win the same love, affection, and support his father shows his twin sister, but nothing ever seems to move him closer to the goal; instead, Alan feels like his actions drives a greater wedge between them. He questions Alana, "e;Why does our father hate me so much?"e; Does his father hate him? What will it take for him to love Alan? What will it cost? Will Alan and his father ever have the relationship he desperately desires, or will he always be the mistake that can never be erased? Join Alan on this adventurous recap of how he grew up with his sister, Alana, his mother, and his father as he shares and relives some of his hardest times and greatest times with Ms. Macey-the local diner owner-on his seventy-fifth birthday. Through his story, Alan teaches us that it's never too late to love, to laugh, to live, to heal, to forgive, and to have a new beginning!
