Ten Minutes

If I had ten minutes to save anything in my house in a fire I would first get my cat outside even though I do not really like her. Despite this I would take her because she belonged to my grandpa before he died. Then I would go back in and grab a few books to read because even if I was going to lose everything else at least I would have something to read so I could go somewhere else in my mind. I would also take the cologne that was my great grandfather’s out of the house so I would always have something to remind me of him. Then I would grab my statue of the blessed mother and the picture that we have of Jesus so I can always remind myself that He is there for me. Lastly I would get my iPOD and my pillow. I would take my iPOD because music helps me relax and become clear of mind. The only reason I would grab the pillow would be firstly because I have had it all my life, and also because it has brought me comfort when I was scared or stressed or just tired. And then if I had some time I would grab my backpack because the books inside were so expensive. Overall I would take memories and possessions dear to me.
