What are three objects you couldn’t live without?

This prompt has had me stumped for a few days. The obvious answer is Nourishment, Shelter and Oxygen. None of which are likely to abandon me anytime soon. Because I am fortunate.

So to rewrite the question . What are the three objects I would rather not live without.

In the scrag end of winter, where we are now, I always like Daffodils in the house. If I could only have one variety of cut flowers throughout the year it would be Daffodils, heralds of Spring. Evidence that there is life after Winter.

Books, my life would be a much less vivid experience if I had to give up books.

The sea, it just makes everything in life, good or bad, take a step back.

Looking at these three frivolous choices is a privilege that comes because I am Nourished, I do have shelter and as long as I choose to breathe Oxygen will be available. 

I could live in a shepherds hut on a Cornish cliff and read books for days on end in February. My 3 essentials easily to hand but then there would be more lists of 3.

• My car.
• A Waitrose delivery every two days
• Jolly coast path walkers to chat to. Unless the coast path walker was Raynor Winn. Her books are also excluded from any lists. Unless of course I had a solid fuel heater in my Shepherds Hut and Waitrose failed to deliver  any charcoal. Her books could be rolled and burned as paper logs.

Then there would be another list of 3

Radio to listen to the Shipping Forecast

Raincoat for walking on the Daffodil strewn cliff edge.

Chocolate for the pocket of the raincoat.

This list malarky just goes on and on . Better just to stop with the Oxygen, Shelter and nourishment because after that I just get shallow and vengeful and eat chocolate. Alrhough it could be argued that chocolate is nourishment.

Honestly just a daft bloody question

I think 300 would be a better number. Does wanting more make me shallower or does it show hidden depths?
