I don’t know what I was looking for, or running from. ![]() I’d never heard of Destiny, Missouri, in my life, and that was good enough a reason for me when I grabbed my two kids, stuffed everything I own in my truck, and drove down here. The low porch overlooks the overgrown garden, and I gaze at it blindly, not quite sure how I got here. ![]() The house is big, the town small, a smattering of houses and trees scattered on the plain. So here I am now, standing in the early morning, staring at nothing. Let myself roll in the warmth, believe I had reached my destination. There’s a bright, warm place men call home. ![]()
