The firm and strict line leaves the man's mouth. "You must get out, stay out, and never come back. Take three items. Family members and animals are out of the building. You have sixty seconds." The shock attacks, shrouding me in an overwhelming cloud of surprise and sadness. Three items. Never return. What should I take? Three things I care about most. I take a step back, stumbling for my favorite book Left Behind, guitar, and my lucky necklace. And as I walked from my home, my sanctuary, my happy place, I think over what I have, and regret nothing. The requirement of choosing between many items to only take three can stress out many people to the point of confusion. If you get to the point, and grab what comes to mind first, the decision is easier to make, and takes less time. I chose the three items; Left Behind, my guitar, and my lucky necklace because these are three things I wouldn't be able to keep sane with out. It sounds ridiculous, but it is true. Ever since I got my lucky necklace, I've worn non-stop. It really is lucky. Ever since I got it, I've had nothing but good luck. I can't live with out music, so a guitar would be helpful, and Left Behind is one of those books where you can read it over and over, and it never gets old!
