If
you could only own what you could carry, what would you own? Doesn't that question
answer itself? Obviously I would own what I am carrying!

clothes, food, water, the essentials of life

If I could only own what I could carry, I
would own a big fat coat for those cold days, a nice pair of walking shoes, a fork, spoon
& knife, and a backpack to carry those little things I would need. And this is all
assuming I don't have a place to live.
Stephanie, 25

The clothes on my back, my fine mind, and a
notion of my place in the universe.

If I don't own what I have, but rather
someone else provides these things for me, then do I really need anything? Having the
things you need and want are fine, having these things provided are key. If it were the
case that I had intentions to move away to another country never to return back to where I
am leaving,and could only bring what I could carry then I would have with me things I own
like some clothing, and a box full of my
writings and things of sentimental value. If I could carry my boyfriend I would ;)

a toothbrush, five pairs of underwear, a bar
of soap, a hair brush, my cd player and a laptop computer.
Maggie, 20
Sandwich, IL
USA
A few changes of clothes, a few old-friend
books, basic toiletries, a light, warm sleeping bag, a handful of sentimental items (a
locket, some photos), and a super light-weight computer.
Jane, 60

I'd wear a pair of binoculars around my neck
(I've been a birder for nearly 10 years and have gotten so I go nowhere without
binoculars), and carry a laptop computer with all my genealogy in it. I'm always cold so
I'd wear a sweater.
Reba, 51

IF I COULD ONLY OWN WHAT I CAN CARRY I WOULD
HAVE MY BIBLE AND FAMILY AND FRIENDS PHOTOS. THEY ARE THE MOST PRECIOUS TO ME. I WOULD
ALSO CARRY MY CELL PHONE SO I COULD KEEP IN TOUCH OR MAKE EMERGENCY PHONE CALLS.

This makes me think of Ever After,
when Danielle picks up the prince and starts carrying
him off. . .I don't know, I think I'd have to go with a couple of well-stocked bags, but I
wouldn't want to carry them all the time.
Karen, 21
Marshelltown/Ames, IA USA
My laptop computer.
Eric, 18

My teddy bear, and the "arrows of the
queen" trilogy by mercedes lackey.

Man, this is a tough question:
Although it would break my heart, I guess I could not
take all 7 of my animals. I would have to choose Dylan because he is a beagle, although I
would pray that the other animals would forgive me, because when I see them after I croak,
I don't want them to be mad at me.
I assume you would allow me to carry a
backback, so I can put stuff in there. That being the case: I would bring with me the
Odyssey by Homer, and the Iliad, my favorite books of all time. Also, I would bring the
"novels", unpublished albeit, that I have written, and I would bring paper and
pen, so I can continue to write. Also, I would bring pictures of all my beloved animals,
and I would bring the "casket" of Sarge and Axl, there are small, so I will have
them with me at all times. Also, I would wear Axl's pin, of a cat, that the place gave me
to remember Axl by. I would leave Shorty's casket for my mom, since she was her dog. Also,
I suppose I should bring some attire, since some people would have a cow if I chose to go
au natural.

A few pairs of clothes, a good pair of
shoes, a small blanket, a sturdy bag, a camera, a notebook, and some pens. Hygenic
stuff(of course),faith, hope, and a whole lotta love. PS...this is how i want to live as
it is...regardless of IF's
Adrianne, 15
FL USA
Definitely my Palm Pilot. That would
eliminate the need for books, puzzles, games, a datebook, an address book, etc. Everything
else would go in as big a backpack as I could find.
etoile, 20
Washington, DC USA
I'd own a mini portable radio with
earphones, 2 pairs of underwear, 2 pairs of
socks, a bra, a comfortable outfit, a bottle of Ice Mountain water, a superthin laptop,
and a cell phone.

Something tells me this was originally a
Survivor related question. There's also a few variables on this, things like how am
I carrying it (just in my hands or in a backback?), things I currently possess or
anything? Of what I have now: notebooks (pens too I guess), pocket knife, compact food
items, a couple of paperbacks that take forever to read but aren't boring (I'mthinking Russian), a lighter...and don't forget to
dress in layers.
Alias Irrelevante
Very tough
question...some photos of my daughter through the years...a small assortment of old
cassettes and newer CDs and walkman, a toothbrush, some money, my pocketbook with all it's
current contents, keys to my truck and house...and one suitcase filled with casual clothes
and an extra pair of shoes. OH GOD...and a hairbrush!
Fisch, 45
Preston, CT

well, I basically live out of a bag now. And
you should see all of the stuff I carry arround in there.
Jaden, 21
Brampton, Ontario CANADA
A backpack full of clothes, a cd
player, cds, and all the cash I could get my hands
on...
Jeremy, 13
Highlands Ranch, CO USA
Oh man... this question requires too much
thought... what are the parameters? do I still have an income? access to the ATM? or is it
a desert island type question? that makes answering this question easier.
Laura, 36

I suppose it would depend on the situation.
And if we are talking about carrying on my back or in a vehicle of some sort. If we are
talking about continuing to live a day to day life with work and everything. A lightweight
portable computer, cell phone, a small collection of versitile clothing clothing
that could be interchanged and go from winter to summer and day to night, a small
toiletries bag filled with all the necessaries, a handful of photos and sentimental pieces
of jewelry and small tokens, passport, driver's license, birth certificate, ATM, and
credit cards . Pretty much everything else I could find, rent, or borrow from others.
Felicia, 35
Lowell, MA

My girlfriend. (Just kidding.)
A-Dog, 18
McMinnville, OR USA
if you mean carry in a back pack or
something like that I guess I'd just have a couple shirts and a sweater and a walkman and
a discman and some CD's and such. . .

Jami, 27

Well, I could probably carry some clothes,
some jewelry, a couple of cats, a few dogs on a leash, everything that means something to
me, I would stuff in my pockets, my bag of weed, pictures, I could stuff a back-pak full,
does that count? In that case, I could carry quite a bit.
