If my family were to have to pick up and move to another country it would be a very traumatic experience.  The thought that we would not be able to go back to our home is hard to imagine.  I can only imagine the stress that families have to deal with in this situation.  The three items that I would grab are my study Bible, notepad, and click pen.  I grabbed my study Bible for guidance and hope.  I grabbed my notepad and pen to write down all my experiences and feelings.  I would also use the paper to write down phrases of the new language that are going to be important to the survival of my family. 

Now that we are in the new country we will try to set up our new life.  At this time we are scarred and confused by the new culture and expectations.  We have just been told that we have to leave two of the items we brought from our homeland.  I am confused as to the change in expectations.  I am frustrated and feel deprived.  I don’t understand why this is happening and just want to go back home.  I know that is no longer possible, so I am just going to have to make do and adjust.

          While thinking about my responses to this assignment many ideas and feeling came to my mind.  I learned that there were few items that came to my mind when thinking of the items I would take.  The items that I chose were items that I feel would be most useful to me.  My Bible is the one item that I would not want to live without.
