So, built up with expectations and hope, my parents drove me up to the top of a mountain and dropped me off. If there is anything in life that has been better than my expectations, it would have to be Horton Center. . . Horton Center provides kids and adults with a feeling of self-worth. It is a safe community. People care for one another.
People love one another.
It doesn't matter if your hair is brown, your pants are purple, your skin is all covered with pimples. . . And this is not to say that people become fake. Anger still exists on the mountain. So people who spend a week on the mountain find themselves energized. . . So I've been returning to Horton Center since that first week on the mountain.
