NEEDFUL THINGS...


NEEDFUL THINGS...



Come here for a moment, please…

Now, I have a question for you, but first, let’s lay out some ground rules. Your boo (spouse, mate, bed bunny), children and God are a given – no need to use ‘your wishes’ to include them in your acceptance speech. I gotcha covered. Now...

The question is, “What are three things that you can’t live without?” 

Need more help? Okay, if you can’t think of an answer imagine this scenario:…
If right at this second, I told you that the world was going to implode in five minutes and you had that time to grab whatever it was you wanted, then zoom away with me in a rocket ship before the Apocalypse, what three items would you get and dash away with into space?



Now for me, the answers seem to change from year to year, hell, I’ll be honest – mood to mood, but one thing stays consistent – I always want some sort of writing instrument, rather it is paper and pen, or a laptop, I must have an endless supply at my disposal. My need to write and draw must be satisfied, therefore, this is a personal need that requires the proper tools.

So, tell me, what three things can you not live without? The great thing about this question, is that it gives a pretty cool forecast as to where you are in your life. It is a sneak peek at your preoccupations, your passions and dreams. So remember, dream BIG.
