The Road to Respect

Melanie is in her first year of college. She goes to class every day. She goes to the library every night. And she works in between. She’s majoring in business. Her life is moving her toward the direction that it was expected to take. The life she wanted.

Or so she thought.

That all changed with an awkward encounter with the campus bad boy, and ended with an attempt to right a wrong for the town’s juvenile delinquent.

And Melanie found that college is not really about taking that expected path. It’s about losing your way and the struggle it takes to finding it again. It’s about learning that there are several roads toward that goal, not just the one your parent’s expected you to take. And it’s learning about yourself through the friendships and loves that you make along the way.

It’s about falling in lust. It’s about falling in love. It’s about heartaches and heartbreaks. It’s about finding friends in the most unlikely of persons.

It’s about the road to respect.
