When I did winter track in 9th grade, we had practice at the other high school in my town, so I didn't know the area well. I ran six miles in the wrong direction. Tired, I knocked at some house to ask for directions. Instead, the young couple who answered drove me all the way to the school. GMH - GivesMeHope

Submit Your GMH

- Want to get your story posted? : The way the story is written is VERY important. Try to end your story with a punch-line. If you can, QUOTE SOMEBODY in the story. It's OK to capitalize a word or two to add emphasis. And USE (first) NAMES!
- How it works: More than 150 stories are submitted each day. GMH visitors vote on all submissions for 7 days, and the 4 best stories are posted on the home page. So if your story doesn't appear there, as many as 100 people still read it and smiled while moderating!

That's really cool but it potentially could have turned into one of those missing person things...

It's really an egregious experience, to be lost and found again. The allegiance you've found is exceptionally fortunate considering it was winter as well. Keep up your determination. =)
