Three Things I Can't Live Without
Narrowing down the three things I can't live without is hard. It sounds easy, but it isn't. This task will really make you think.
In deciding my three, I assumed God would be the first one. This is not a materialistic one, and the original task was to narrow down to three things and three beings. So, I've noted God, but I'll now look more at actual items.
Here are my three things I can't live without:
- Books
- Pen/Paper
- Crochet/Knitting
You thought I'd say things like running watter, microwaves, and the internet. These are great to have around, and I do miss them when I don't have them. Yet I can live without them. I have for short periods of time. Plus, I grew up without two of them and the other one once in a while. It can be done. It's these three I would feel the worst over not having.
Books are my life. I've been reading since I could look at picture books. If I was told I could never have access to a book again, I would be completely devestated. It would depress me.
Pen and paper is important because I love to write. Even if no one ever liked anything I wrote, I'd still write because it is therapeutic for me. It is a sanity release. Without it, I think I would suffer mentally.
My crochet and knitting is also therapeutic for me. Plus, these crafts can produce very useful items such as blankets and clothing. It is a creative outlet that produces things we all can use.
I would go crazy without these three things. That being said, I'm going to go finish a chapter in one of my stories and start my blanket.
