Hello, my name is Peter Lye and I am a survivor. I have been trying to discard, or at least understand, my fatal burdens, and replace them with progress. For the first time in my life I feel I have a life ahead of me. Here is a snapshot of my recent situation, from a few years ago 'til now, and how I'm handling it. A few years ago, around the time the Dream Team was formed, my grim existence was interrupted by two disasters. A house fire placed me homeless on the street, and an arrest put me in jail. I faced years in detention, and the judge was asked to refuse me bail.
