Tonight...

...A mother rocks her baby to sleep.

...A father works the late shift.

...A comic is on stage, praying for a laugh.

...A son scarfs up his dinner, because it's his only meal of the day.

...A family is watching Dancing With the Stars.


...A woman roots for change in her purse, her coin cup, her desk drawer...to buy a gallon of milk for her family.

...A girl cries herself to sleep, but cannot fully explain why.

...A young man searches the Internet for a job. Any job.

...A first kiss is shared.

...A teenager wanders the darkness, looking for a safe place to sleep.

...A wife is wondering where her husband is.

...A man is watching Monday Night Football and eating a full bag of Cheetos.

...A dream is realized.

...A group of friends is driving from LA to Vegas.

...A man is proposing to the girl of his dreams.

...A woman is packing a suitcase to leave her husband.

...A candle is burning.

...A heart is broken.


Which is you? Which is me?
