Toothpick – to remind you to pick out the good qualities in others.
Rubber band – to remind you to be flexible, things might not always go the way you want, but will work out.
Pencil – To remind you to list your blessings everyday.
Eraser – to remind you that everyone makes mistakes, and its okay.
Chewing gum – to remind you to stick with it and you can accomplish anything.
Candy – to remind you that everyone needs a sweet word, appreciation or a hug everyday.
Remember to the world, you may just be somebody... but to somebody, you may be the world to somebody.

id- for identification when something bad happen.
cellphone- to keep in touch with my family and friends.
pictures-to remember all the good memories i have had.
body lotion-to protect myself from the cruel heat of the sun
wristwatch- to keep track of time

Oh yes, if you take all this in our daily survival kit, it is a must. The list can go on and on, for what we need everyday is wide and varied. What we need is to learn from these little things on how to make life more meaningful evary day, and learn to understand what they imply and count our blessings. Cheers.

I agree with the above, about the Kleenex, as you don't know when you need one to clean up something.
Salt - so as to remember that to take everything with a grain of salt.
A brush - for times when you want to paint the town (red)
A fork - for when you have to eat a piece of humble pie
Ear plugs - so you won't have to hear all the negativity in the world
A soap box - when you need to shout out to the world
It's pretty obvious that I'm just making this up
, but I could go on an on...

Yes bounce, this is the way it goes./ When little things in life can teach us something, we should accept it and learn from them to make our life a more meaningful one. You are very very right in what you have written and hats off to you. It just shows what a nice person you are. Cheers

Cell phone- I have to make a call or I am waiting for a call.
Mint chocolates- tasty and keeps my breath fresh.
Pen and paper- Something always has to be written down.
Wallet- Where I live, don't be surprised if the cops stop you for something, so have that ID ready.
Scissors- You never know when you have to cut something.
Kleenex- Seems odd, I know, but you never know when you'll need them to clean something up.
A book- Any book, but reading helps keep one occupied.

Great going rogue13. But this can go on and on, we need endless things in our daily life. However what I have penned down is to give us some advise as to how to live our life and learn from these simple things on how to make our life more meaningful. Scissors, yes, to cut away the bad habits from our life. Let these small things remind us to be a better person everyday ! Thanks.
