Today is supposed to be a photo of something I cannot live without. And I went through my head. Was is my handy dandy notebook (computer)? Was it my cell phone? Was it my camera? Was it my Kindle? And then I realized that everything that I was listing was an expensive electronic device.
So then I started to think a little more on a basic level.
Sushi?
Nursing textboooks? (no, I could really, really live without those...)
No, what I realized that in the end, it wasn't the stuff. It never was. This is what I couldn't live without:
The people that make up my world, my family and friends. That's the one thing I couldn't live without. They are my world, and without them, everything is....just stuff. I can live without the electronics, the gizmos, the gadgets. But these people are irreplaceable. Some are gone, to be seen again in Heaven. Some I don't talk to nearly enough. And some I didn't have recent pictures of. But my family and friends, that is the one thing I couldn't imagine life without.
Except maybe chapstick :-)
