The One Thing I Can't Live Without Is?

November 27th 2007 20:55

Putting the emotional aspects of the question to one side for the moment (ie: love, friends) - what is the one material crutch in your life that you simply can't live without?

Perhaps you're a classical music fan and the mere thought of not getting a daily dose of Fabini, Jackson or Easdale would drive you manic.

Perhaps its that first coffee, the gym, new shoes, meditation?

Does the thought of losing your mobile put fear and loathing into your existence?

What ever it is - I would love to hear it.

Although I would hate to lose my phone, diary, computer, music, DVDs, and go without chocolate, etc, the one material thing I would not be able to live without is BOOKS.

I feel lost if I don't read everyday, and not just reading magazines, or stuff online, it's the book itself and not just what is in it that I love. It's so exciting opening a brand new book with its perfect pages and uncreased spine, and so comforting opening a really old book that has been pored over a hundred times.

What about YOU, MNG?

I would despair if I lost my laptop or my television *blush*!

Thankyou for asking.

Like you - I have to read - mostly crappy stuff - trivial non-sense, newspapers, magazines - in fact I find it hard to sit down to breakfast, lunch - whatever and not have something - even a catalogue to muse over.

That said - I'm not a big reader of fiction - never have been. It's simply not an escape for me. Personally I find it hard to sit down for any prolonged period of time and chill - always been a bit of a doer.

However - I do love my music. In essence that my escape! That and the surf. The two have been intertwined in my life since I can remember.

Both help centre my life.

Thanks for sharing.

JoH!

I suppose it could be worse.

Ah - the crutches of modern life - huh?

Well should you ever be trapped on a desert island, at least you'll have one of your great loves right there! The ocean. I grew up by the sea, and even though I'm hopeless at surfing, and panic if I get dunked, I really miss being right near it.

BTW, love the question mark pic, forgot to tell you before!

This may sound funny but i cannot live without lipstick. I don't wear much make-up, my daily face routine is powder and lipstick -that's it. It's amazing what a little lipstick can do to brighten a woman's face.

I would definitely miss television - in fact I am really missing the Daily Show and Colbert Report, which have been put on hiatus due to the strike - but I know that, when it comes down to it, I can do without it.

However, I hate feeling 'disconnected' - if I leave my mobile phone at home when I go out, I feel somewhat helpless. I would hate not to have the internet as well, as I just love having all that knowledge, resources and entertainment at my fingertips.

What a wonderful medium television is. I find that by the time I get home from work - the best I can do is try and catch the late news - so it doesn't play as big a role in my life as it once did.

Take it away altogether though - and I'd be lost.

Thanks for stopping by and chatting.

The 'net'.

Use that term 10 years ago - and people would think you were involved in either the fishing industry or a circus

Yep - so many of us are a slave to technology - no matter how good it is.

Hey Lara

Love my iPod - whether its going for a run, on the train or just about and about - but you know what - love playing vinyl on the jukebox even more.

I'm a snippety kinda guy when it comes to books though. Facts and general trivial dribble is about my limit.

Though I do read the occassional read autobiography.

Thanks for stopping by.

Great to have you come on board.

A colleague's husband is in the same boat.

Chalk that one up to a definite necessity.

Hope you find the time to drop in again.

Movies and Life

Okey crokey, there would be loads: music, books, writing implements, computer, photos, telly, cinemas, lipstick (I agree with Hope), chocolate (as you might've guessed), camera, car to drive to see my parents, parks...

It's not that I am materialistic as such but these things make me happy, they keep me in touch with people which is really important to me and I enjoy and appreciate them.

Another great question, MNG

Morning MNG

Yes, it is!

I though of something I can live without, my printer who can't seem to print more than 5 pages without getting 'jammed'...hmmm

Byee
