My Family Culture

Three items I would choose:
  • Bible: I would take my Bible because I was raised in a Christian family and if I were in a foreign country where things were different, I would defnitely need God on my side.
  • Computer: I would take my computer so that I would be able to connect to family and to be able to keep up with what is going on in ther world.
  • Pictures: I would take pictures of my family so that I can remember the good times.
What the items mean:
Each of the items represent a piece of my family. The Bible represents my religious upbringing, pictures represent the good times that I shared with my family, and the computer will help me to keep in touch with family.

My feelings if I were told I could only take one item:
I would be devestated if I had to choose only one item because each item connects me to my family in some form of fashion. Losing contact with family would make me feel as though I am losing myself.

Completing the assignment:
After completing this assignment, I realized that the other materialistic things in my life such as my house, car, and clothing do not mean as much to me as  my family. My family is the most valuable asset I have in my life.

  1. I agree with you about family. I came to the same conclusion. Family is the most important thing in life, you can replace stuff.

  2. I love your items you would take with you! These are exactly what I would take with me if I were in a foreign country without family and friends. These three items mean a lot to me.

  3. I had not thought about a computer, not knowing if we would have access to electricity. I agree that family is the key to life. Without mine I would have a hard time living aboard year after year. I love sharing my pictures with my extended family friends over here.

  5. Shelia,

    We had many things in common as too what we would bring over into a foreign land. I selected my bible as an item to keep if of the other two I had to give away, I believe when all goes wrong in which they sometimes do I can always remain reflective on the word of God, in many situations it wasn't anybody else but him to get me through.
