One Thing In Your Life You Cannot Live Without

What is the one vice in your life you cannot live without?

It's not exactly a vice, but I do have a penchant for fine automobiles and watches. Both bring me great satisfaction due to their quality and high degree of engineering. They also have longevity, that I value. Some of my better watches are 30 or 40 years old. They still look good and work perfectly. More than price or name, I believe in quality and often they do not correlate. As a paperweight I have says, my tastes are simple, I only like the very best.

What is one thing you can't live without that was given to you by another human?

I think it was the idea of thinking a lot. Someone who was, presumably highly intelligent, said a secret of thinking. It was in a form of question. He asked, “ How do you receive the thoughts that you make? “ The answer to it is that you don’t. You don’t receive the thoughts that you make. You don’t receive them. So as a working mind, to be able to produce thoughts, the thing is very simple: that is you’ll make them. You, in a sense, actually receive them yourself. You receive what you make. As in this case, you receive the thoughts that you make. The process is that you receive your thoughts after making them because you think of them after receiving.Well, the main idea is to think. Don’t let your mind rust and be fooled by the idea that you become intelligent by not thinking or acquiring information and understanding them.

What is one thing you absolutely cannot live without?

GOD.My journey in life has made me realize the presence of Divine as my life-force. I was born in a religious Hindu family. As I grew and reached primary schooling, I started rebelling my parents. With my best friend's support, I started learning Christian prayer songs, learned to read Bible, went to Church on Sundays, etc. Though my Mom found it difficult to accept, my Dad allowed me to explore life and GOD. I also started feeling incomplete when one religion did not accept the presence of the other. It is at this time that my uncle took me to Sundaram - a Sathya Sai Prayer Hall in Chennai. The Bhajans that were on different religions and the prayer "Loka Samastha Sukino Bhavanthu" stirred me. I started attending Balvikas classes. This was the next phase in my life where different religions and their core value of LOVE was introduced to me in a subtle way.When I entered college, my ego levels were too high and I was in a phase of thinking that I am the one to define my life and take control. I started questioning the existence of GOD.When I started my career, got married, etc. and understood that there are instances in Life which were completely out of my control, I started talking about Universe, Energy, Law of Attraction, etc. The movie "The Secret" had a huge impact on me and it re-emphasized that I can create the life of my dreams. But it also made me feel scared about my negative thoughts, fears, complaints, limiting beliefs, etc.With the help of NLP, Gestalt therapy and Pranic Healing meditations the limiting beliefs were shattered. Stillness was introduced. I am filled with gratitude that were given to me to explore GOD and Life.With Sharangathi and Divine Guidance, every moment now, is a blessing!

What do you have that you cannot live without?

In one word it's - THIRST. Here, thirst is very comprehensive term. Thirst can be for intellectual desires, wordly desires, etc. No matter who are and how old are you, you make every possible efforts to realize your thirst.         The conscious and subconscious mind always piques your mind to go and search for your ambitions and desires.          It's like a wanderer being in desert looking for an oasis and if it doesn't find it, It's  end. DEATH. I, death meant a natural one, but possibly, possibly you live a dead life.        Someone comes or something happens that blows some magic and again you run to replenish your thirst.           The cycle continues untill you are lying onto dead bed -no more breathe,no more heart beat so, no more THIRST.            PERIOD.

What are the things you can never live without?

Good, sweet old love. I crave it, mainly because I’m that person that overthinks a situation a lot. A little bit of love in anyway calms me down and helps me focus. Therefore, a bit of being spoilt by Appa and extra affection from the Mothership makes my day.I can’t live without reading. It could be anything: a book, an article, a letter, a passage, or a poem. I do it whenever I’m free, and it could be wherever I am. As long as I have something in my hand that intrigues me. I learn a lot, and I try to use the different styles that I observe while reading.YouTube. The only reason I still have any connection with the current happenings. Music, comedy, live shows, “How To” hacks, solved problems, coding based solutions: it’s the only reason I seem to have my life together and not in a wild mess. If there are things that I do that seem to be smart, don’t congratulate me. Congratulate YouTube.South Indian Food for breakfast. One the many thrills and forms of love I receive whenever I am at home. The ecstasy of seeing rava idlis, the different chutneys, or the various upmas, on your plate for breakfast is something that cannot be framed into a sentence. And who can ever forget the smell that beckons you to the kitchen. It’s those moments you feel proud of being a South Indian.Music. In all forms, in any language that I understand. I let a song play, and I end up singing along with it. I listen to the voice, I try to remember the lyrics in the first go, and I try to feel the emotion contained in it. Some songs bring happiness to my heart, while some make my heart ache. I enjoy it’s diversity, and I enjoy the raw emotion as it is.:)

What is that one thing a person can’t live without (not air, food, water, etc)?

If someone ask me about one thing a person can't live without I will definitely say emotions.I think human life is like a canvas and emotions are different colour of paint. These emotions help us to colour each page of our lives with different shades. Isn't it marvellous that whenever we think about our past we get into a emotional state according to the event that accord during that time. These memories help us to build our future, our lives.Can you think of a life without emotions? Of course there will be no wars, no tussle between people and peace everywhere. But we will have to live like a robot. Doing a job only because it's needs to be done. There will be no anger, disappointment, fear, excitement, hope and love. A life where intellect will decide everything. A life where 'think from your heart’ will have no meaning.I read the answer by fellow quoraions. They very correctly answered this question as hope, purpose, inspiration, faith etc being a necessity for a person to live his life. But I believe that all these things are of no use if one don't have the ability to feel. If one can't feel disappointment there is no place hope, no inspiration means no purpose and no confidence means no inspiration.As an example consider a situation where you had no emotions, what your answer would have been if you had asked the question 'what is one thing a person can't live without?’ to yourself? Your intellect would have said Oxygen. You would have not even thought of any other things.A place where intellect will rule our life will be a place with no value for a life and no purpose of life.I will like to sum up my answer with a conversation from the movie Star Trek: Beyond. It is dialogue between Spock(whom I consider as intellect) and Dr. Bones(whom I consider as emotions):Spock: Fear of death is illogical.Bones: Fear of death is what keep us alive.Stay Happy. :):):)
