He wanted—and believed he had—everything under control, at least until life threw him off course. Over the years, Max had crafted a persona for himself, bordering on narcissism. He wanted to excel at everything, to redeem himself in life, to rise above the envy and jealousy he had experienced in his youth—at any cost. He had always been running, perhaps from himself, perhaps from his past, or maybe from his future, until the day his heart demanded its dues. The universe said, "Enough!" His heart erupted, speaking out with force, sweeping away reason, control—everything. It all came crashing down, suddenly, without warning, without support, leaving only emptiness. Total emptiness.

Can it shatter decades of masks, walls, and defenses? Apparently, yes!A journey of rebirth inside and outside the protagonist... Perhaps, if it weren't for the universe and the love he had lived—and that so often brought him to his knees—he wouldn't have realized that his heart is not just a muscle, but the path to happiness.
