Material Possessions

How important are material possessions? How would you deal with the destruction of your home and all of your belongings? What do you think you could most easily live without with?




For me, material possessions aren’t that necessary anymore. Although I may felt extremely depressed at first if I lost a certain possession, the feeling may be gone within a few weeks that new possession will fill the emptiness in my heart. However, if my house somehow got bombed or destroyed, the most important material possessions I will be carrying with me are my passport and money. It is important to carry some identification such as social security card or passport with people during evacuation. No one will like to be a nameless person when survivors find your body under some piles of ruined buildings. Things that can be easily replaced such as pencils, eraser, and books are something we can easily live without off. Now a days, most people uploaded their pictures on facebook or other online website. As long as computer and internet continued to exist, those files aren't likely to be gone. There fore it's not necessary for us to carry our photo albums as our most valuable material possessions.
