That one thing I cannot live without

Hello!
I really have poor eyesight since I was a kid and my eyeglasses got lost recently. It's not that I cannot see at all without it but since I'm very used to wearing it at home and outside I really cannot imagine living without eyeglasses anymore. That's more important than my phone or most of my stuff really.
How about you guys? What's that one thing besides money, food, basic necessities that you cannot live without?

@Jessabuma yeah. That sounds far. Better take care of your phone then. I hope you get to see them soon.

Cellular phones are really now a necessity nowadays. Are you far from your family that much?

As for good eye sight, Hope you do find your glasses ASAP. A good pair of basic reading glasses are always better than nothing. Have you used 2.5 magnification lenses? These are usually available for under 10 bucks or even less than 5 bucks. Taking care of your eyes is very important.

I haven't tried to use 2.5 magnification lenses yet. I think I'm gonna buy a pair and always have with me in my bag just in case. Thanks for the tip!

Oh my gosh, being without my glasses would be terrible! My eyesight is so bad. I would have to pick that because I get such bad headaches and all my works is based on me needing to see haha I guess my second would be my laptop because that is how I work.

@cedie0808 I have had my glasses since I was 9 years old, they are pretty much just another limb at this point haha!

Yeah. It's really difficult to move around or work without them. I really envy those people with 20/20 vision. Haha

I've tried before but I always ended up having bad headaches and I've had difficulty doing my work without them. I'm used to it though so it's cool. :)

I believe strongly in music. That's the one thing keeps me going everyday.

I wear glasses too and I have lived without them for a bit, but I get terrible headaches from eye strain. I try not to be dependent on too many things but I do need my coffee in the mornings. :-)

That's the other problem, the headaches. Haha. I stopped drinking that much coffee now because my doctor told me to stay away from it because of my migraines. I drink like 4-5 cups of coffee a day before.

I always carry a pen along with me even if I am going for shopping...though I know there is no reason to carry one at that time! That is the habit I have dear @cedie0808!

@cedie0808 , Thanks a lot for understanding my point dear friend! i appreciate that! Have a great time!

That's a great habit. You never know when you'll need a pen so it's always good to carry one. I often have that 'there's no pen when you need it, but always there when you don't', so I think I'll make a habit of carrying one always as well.

@cedie0808 Mostly I'm using my laptop but when I'm outside I use my smartphone.

If you cannot live without those then they're counted. :)
Are you using your smartphone or laptop in watching those?

It would be hard to live without my eyeglasses, too. I hope you find them or bought a new one.
