My motives for the story is to give people the opportunity to realise that even if they're living in rough circumstances it doesn’t mean they cant strive to make the situation positive. The idea is compiled by a lot of things I have seen over the years, it’s a story a lot of people can relate to, I’m sure of that, or else I wouldn’t write about it. Quote from "Price Awuáh" the creator of the story.
