Don’t you just hate that I always have questions? I know I do. But, questions are supposed to make people think. Thinking is something that is almost impossible for most Americans to do, so I get a sadistic kick out of asking them.
The question today is serious. What is your most prized possession? You can’t use people or pets, because you never really own them. I’m talking about that something that you treasure more than all your worldly possessions. It could be your new car, grandma’s ring, or perhaps your favorite fishing lure. It might be something you’ve had for years or something you haven’t had very long. What ever it is, it is yours and you don’t ever want to lose it.
Because we are all human, most of us are, we tend to accumulate stuff, as George Carlin said. In all that stuff, we have stuff that we really don’t need or want anymore. But, a prized possession is not one of those. Someone might seriously choose a wedding ring, a photo of someone loved, a valuable antique or who knows what. We are all different. But, here is what make us alike. Our prized possession reveals a lot about who we really are.
I have two prized possessions that are hard to separate in importance. Yes, I know that one is more important than the other, but I hate to choose.
I have a Bible presented to me by the church, and my Masonic apron. The apron will be a part of my last remains.
I hope the Bible becomes someone’s most prized possession.
What’s your prized possession?
