He pairs up with a stray dog he calls Sunshine along this journey and the two form an unbreakable bond. Selvitelle takes readers through the soul-crushing the man experiences begging on the streets trying to survive as he searches for his lost connection with God. Sunshine helps him to reconnect with the world around him until the day he emerges from his struggles and can put all his fights behind him.

He retired from Eversource after 39 years and now teaches yoga four times a week at Green Harbor Beach in Marshfield, Massachusetts, to help the local food pantry. His current mission is taking spare clothing and food to his homeless brothers and sisters in Boston.
