Don’t Leave Home Without It…
Are there certain things in your life that you absolutely can’t live without?
I don’t mean philosophical, feel-good things like, “Love” or “Happiness” or “Family” or “Jesus” (ok, well…I do mean those, but let’s put those, more important things, to the side for a moment). Don’t get all “spiritual” on me. (j/k)
What are those “things” that you can’t leave the house without? Better yet…those “things” that, if you leave the house without them, you’ll drive back to get them?
Here’s what I don’t leave home without:
1. Cell phone
2. Moleskine notebook – ideas come to me randomly. I like to have my notebook ready whenever the juices flow.
3. Keys to everything I own – There’s no way on Tuesday that I’ll need to use that key that opens the lock for the cabinet door that I only use once every 4th Sunday at our church building. But nonetheless, I must have it with me at all times.
4. Whatever book I’m currently reading – right now, it’s A Million Miles in a Thousand Years by Donald Miller. You never know when you might be stuck and have time to read.
What “things” will you not leave home without?
I have to laugh, Ben.
Your list is EXACTLY my list (with the exception of Miller's book – I read that awhile back – the book I have is Batterson's "Primal").
Were we separated at birth?
Ha! Glad somebody else has the same problems as me!
I always go back in the house for something – keys, sunglasses, kindle, etc. I would go back if I left my wife (or kids) at home.
Just my wallet.
Zombie repellant! DUH!
I thought that was assumed, so that's why I didn't include it in my list, Todd. Good call. Thanks for pointing out the obvious.
dude you are going to love that book, enjoy
Keys, cell phone, wallet (which I am pleased to have pared down to a Fossil money clip that also holds my I.D. and credit cards). I also like to have my iPod Touch, laptop and/or Barnes & Noble nook; but I consider those optional.
