Accidents happen and panic attacks. When faced with emergencies, we find ourselves at a lost. One of the most unfortunate things that could happen is when our house gets burned. They say it's better to have been robbed than to have your house eaten up by fire. Given this scenario and assuming that all the people have been saved,what would you save from your burning house if you have two minutes to do this?

I think the very first thing that I will save is clothes because its really hard to leave without clothes. My husband told me this idea because I also ask him the same question before while we are watching news television and the topic in the news is about fire. The second thing I will save is our savings because with our savings we can have our fund to start again and we can back to normal little by little.

That's a good idea indeed. yes if we don't have clothes then how can we go any where and also the savings are important we can start anything we want from them.

Yup. Our pets are our secondary family members. But perhaps they can save themselves better, especially for cats. They can just leap off the building.

Well if all people and pets where saved I would go back to save my family photos. I also would save things that belonged to my Grandmother and Mother. That's all I need.

Hmm so many things may come to mind at once, but we can only save some which are easily can be taken out. I think i will save all the jewelry ,the cards clothes and also see that all the people are out of fire.

My bag and laptop. I have put important documents in my bag and my laptop of course – no question about that. But I just don’t know if I still have the right mind if it’s going to happen – God forbid. Or maybe I’ll try to save the house first if I see it possible. Hehehe..
