Some people, asked that question, might answer a diamond necklace, jewelries, antiques, etc.
But honestly, it doesn't really end there. you might think this is silly. How about an old picture frame, and old book, even an ordinary mug. For this are the stuff that fill our homes and lives. How poor would we be without them?

Years ago I would have answered much differently because material possessions were very important to me. As I grow older, I realize that the only think I really have on this earth that matter are my children and husband. If I know they are safe, then all seems right in my little world.
Beyond that, I would say that eternal life is even more important than family relationships because that is something that noone can take aways from me and it will last forever. Material possessions will rot and decay. Family members will choose to be with you in eternity or not, but still, the only thing I absolutely plan to have forever is eternal life.

Value is in the eyes of the beholder. Pictures/Photo albums are very valuable to me. These are things that cannot be replaced. I do have a special attachment to a watch I bought myself after I got my first "real" job after I graduated from college. It was the first expensive thing I ever bought for myself.

I suppose my most valuable possession is probably a necklace that my late grandmother gave to me when I turned 8. I don't wear it becase I have a fear of losing it, but I keep it in a little box by my bed.
