cafe chat … deserted island


If you were deserted on an island for 1 year with absolutely no connection

 

to the outside world (not even one person), what 3 things would you bring with you?

Good question Kim… but tough!  Since you said no people I can’t choose Matt to be there… with no connection to the world that means no laptop or cellphone… or radio!  So of course my first choice would be the Bible, it would be a great year of learning I’m sure!  The time we spent in Dallas when Izzy was in the hospital was almost like being deserted on an island for those months.  Almost.  We did see people and have access to phones and things, but we sure didn’t want to watch any television and we didn’t care what the world was doing.  We were focused on learning more about God because we knew that without Him we wouldn’t survive this event.  Our Bibles were our constant companion.  Second I would choose some sort of light source.  Probably a lighter or matches.  I have to be practical, and water would have to be boiled right?  I’ve watched enough epidsodes of Survivor to know at least that much!  The third thing I would choose would be bedding, as in a blanket and/or pillow!  So I could be snuggled up by a nice fire reading.  I honestly don’t know that I could last a year on an island.  Tom Hanks lasted how many years on Castaway?  Like five or more?  He did have Wilson.  Maybe I should choose a soccer ball instead of the bedding?

    I didn’t think of light, or heat or fire…. I was simply trusting Him! We elarnthat when God is all we have, God is always enough.

    Hmmmm….interesting….very interesting! I’d say – my Bible, pen and paper (maybe I would finally write the books in my head), photos of my family.

    I’m sorry I haven’t been by in awhile…I’ve been up to my ears with stuff I’m getting out of the closets I’m cleaning….ugggg!!

    It’s been fun though catching up with you tonight.

    Hugs!

    Love your answers…didn’t think of light. I could use my laptop (no internet connection) as my lightsource, though, or God! :) My Bible was on my list, too.

    You’re funny! Too bad you can’t take Matt. He’s always handy to have around, like to build fires and keep scary creatures away. But I like your answers. I think I would have to copy you and take the same things. That’s what friends are for…to copy.
