What is the most important material object, that you own?

My resophonic guitar. It could be replaced with a different resophonic guitar, but I have to have an operational one at all times...

Just being curious, i got alot of time on my hands tonight, i've been doing my laundry,helping with the neices that are staying with me, picking up the house, and cooking for everyone else, i'm not eating tonight though, dont feel like it. So anyway like i was saying what material object do you value most? and why?

that would be my two Wicca/magick books and the floppy disk with all my poetry that I have ever written.
 
My car 1st cause it allows me a certain type of freedom. My miniature glass and porcelain shoes would break my heart if I suddenly lost them. Each one has a special memory behind it.
 
well, my pentagram around my neck, but thats always with me, havent taken it off in years.. I'd say, I could part with everything else, with only a passing regret, but I would always grab my book of shadows and my sword. those go where I go..
 
It's a toss up, really. It comes down to 2 bits of woodworking my grandfather made for me. A cedar hope chest that I got for my confirmation when I was 13 and a hutch that he made not too long before he died. That was a wedding gift. It meant quite a lot to me since my grandpa wasn;t able to make it to my wedding, nor did he realize that I ever DID get married.

Material posessions is what i was looking for
 
A puzzle that is shaped like an elephant my aunt Jan gave to me in 1984. Also my first plastice lil tea pot from when I was 4. It's blue with a white and red plad bottom with strawberries printed on the bottom part. I keep it in my bathroom always.
 
Pictures of my children as they grew. Those are so precious to me.

When my sister's house burned down, the thing she regreted losing the most were her pictures!
 
Its in my AV...is a huge symbol for me...the first thing I ever bought just for me because i just wanted too and finally could afford too..
 
Starfishies tittieflash series..............:eek: :p :p :p


Edited to add....Fabric designed by my love.....it is beautiful, so is my love.......:kiss:
 
For me it would be a ring my mother had made for me. She gave it to me for my 21st birthday, it was made with the stones from both my grandmothers wedding sets and the gold from my grandfathers wedding ring.

I also have a set of Queen Anne china that was my grandmother. My grandfather gave it to me a few months ago, along with a letter my grandmother had written to me before she died. (she passed away in 1983) Actually the letter is more valuable to me than the china ever could be.
 
The Complete Works of William Shakespeare

Its this ratty big tome, the cover is almost completely fallen off, the pages arent exactly staying in the book. But I have had since i was 12..in fact when my apartment burnt down at the begining of this year..I was more concerned about this book then in where i was going to end up sleeping or where my next meal was coming from

Right now, I'm actually leafing through King lear again
 
A cross given to me a long time ago has sentimental value. I could under extreme circumstances stand to part with it, because my faith is inside, not in the physical object.

Other than that... my guns. We all talk about rights, liberties, this that and the other thing... but when it comes right down to the hard gritty reality of life, the guy who is "right" is the guy with the gun, and if don't like being wrong... you'd better be willing to put it on the line. I wouldn't trade one of my pistols or rifles for anything. I'd give them to a man in need, but they are beyond physical worth.

For fans of the movie Army of Darkness, you'll understand and laugh at the quote "Good guy... bad guy.... I'm the guy with the gun."

My house. I've never worked so hard or sacrificed so much to own something. And I did it all on my own!

My thoughts exactly, except it was not on my own, it was something my husband and I went through heaven and hell to get, and our financial future is inextricably linked to it.
 
Besides pictures. I have a shelf in my home that I have placed all of the things that my patients and their families have given me. Those things mean a lot to me.

Also, I have several Love spoons that were given to me by Jon. They are a Welsh tradition, and I love that he carried that tradition on with me. They are gorgeous.
 
I can't choose. I have about ten material things that are important to me.
 
Most important is a little beige piece of plastic. Without it I'm nonexistant.
 
My eyeglasses are the most important material object that I own. The fact that they are replaceable doesn't change the fact that they are the most immediately important.

I have several irreplaceable pieces of art, but although theyare irreplaceable, one can make usually make adaquate substitutions.
 
My watch.

And a small box I keep beside my bed the holds old love letters from my granfather to my grandmother.
