Someone please save us, us college kids.
My college life.
I remember
I am not sure why but today I suddenly remembered something that happened years ago back when I just started high school. It was during the middle of summer and I along with many friends were enjoying our stay in Fort Collins a city in the state of Colorado. Before I go any further there is something that you must understand, you see I along with most of my friends lived in the city of Miami in the state of Florida and as you can imagine most of us never seen the mountains so you can't blame us for wanting to go see one.

So, one day when we had the chance we all crowed into a tight van and drove towards the closest mountain and when we had arrived we found both a mountain and a YMCA at the mountain's foot. It did not take long for us to start the climb up the mountain. In fact I heard that some people from our group got impatient and stated the climb by themselves. Either way the climb up the mountain was much harder then a thought that it would be and I was exhausted by the time I finally made it to the top but, when I was there I saw something that instantly caught my attention.

On the very top of that mountain was a mailbox full of letters addressed to none other than God and out of curiosity we began to read some of the letters. Out of respect to ones who wrote it I won't tell you what the letters said but, I will tell you that some of those letters were absolutely heart breaking. However I soon realized
that this mailbox contained more then just letters there was also flowers, various sketches and as I soon found even money. Now when I say money I really mean pennies, nickles, dimes, quarters, and even a few coins from different countries. And just before we started our climb back down I remembered reaching into that mailbox and pulling out all the coins that I could find and putting them in my pocket.
