Life in 60'

Yesterday I was surfing the net and I found out a curious web about: "The Burning House".


By the way, before I forget: Don't panic! and be freaki my friend ;)

Anyways, as I was saying, In the page, there is this quote: "If your house was burning, what would you take with you? It's a conflict between what's practical, valuable and sentimental. What you would take reflects your interests, background and priorities. Think of it as an interview condensed into one question".


And its really thought provoking cause as it says, in our mind there would be a huge conflict about: what to take! practical, valuable or sentimental? 


I suppose if we think in a practical way, in real life we don't have time to ponder what kind of stuff we need for ourselves. Our mind only contemplates the situation and our survival instinct reacts. I don't imagine my self in front of my closet, my book shelf or any kind of furniture with things in it, staring and trying to figure out what to take and what to leave.


I still analyzed what would I take, normally people would take (as you can check in the page) all kind of stuff as: laptops, cameras, notebooks, etc etc. but I think they don't have that time... is just for the contest, anyhow, their pictures are really great!


So, as I was saying, I won't make any list since it would be lengthy, i would take so many things, but I reduce it in some stuff that I consider really necessary which is practical - valuable and sentimental at the same time. 


The essence of knowledge is in books, they teach us, make us laugh, make us cry, meditate... 
So, my priority would be my Kindle, I am in love with it!
Then, my Wallet (id card, and other kind of necessary cards), passport and mobile phone. I suppose meanwhile the rest of the house is getting burned so I would have to rush! xD


And for sure, If I had a backpack near (that is almost reasonable), I would take my both macs laptops, camera, and of course, my paintings and Warhammer figures, my guitar and some love letters (maybe this would be unachievable since they are somewhere hidden in the closet). 


That's all, I encourage you to reflect and weight up your life in 60 seconds!
