We are living in a society, where a broken soul isn't poverty, instead it's the sanity of a rich man's reality. Holding on to a crippled perspective and a fading birth-rite to heaven, he worships money twenty-four-seven. With a divorced wife and ADD child, he's trying to hide behind his emotionless pride. He walks with gold at his feet on Wallstreet, while next to the road a beggar has difficulty to breathe, who's hoping on the smallest act of kindness from this so called vindicator, hoping on a turn for the greater. Instead the beggar dies a week later, cause of death, blindness from a traitor who wouldn't help his neighbour. Unaware of the life that was lost, his soul turns to frost as he is more concerned about the retail cost of the new line of Armani. He lives a high life paved with lies and deceit, stacking up one night stands forming part of the deck of cards in his hands. As he gambles his whole life away, he finds it hard to stay sane through all the pain caused by this derailed train. Now he sits high in his penthouse, crying his eyes out leaving mud stains on the carpet he has to sell cause he's bankrupt. All alone, filled with anger, crawling through the darkness in search of an answer, he gets hammered down by a messed up fate of stage four cancer. He falls down to the floor, the wolf of Wallstreet can take it no more. He thinks about his child and wife, with tears in his eyes he tries to cut short his own life with a knife, tries to commit suicide, the rope around his neck breaks, snap, he falls straight on his back. For the first time he cries out to God, save me from myself. I'm sorry for the things I've done, the man I've become, a dissapointing son. Jesus picked him up, dried the tears from his eyes, forgave all his sins, the lies, the crimes of his high life. He got filled with love, started to walk the narrow road with God. He made a turn for the greater, he was no longer a traitor. He died three weeks later, a true vindicator, set free from his sinful nature lifted to heaven, he received the favour from the Creator, Jesus Christ, the glorious Saviour.
