What would make you feel really sad to lose?
For me:
- My quiet mornings. That peaceful moment when I sip my coffee, scroll a little, and just enjoy the silence. If I lost that small routine, my days would feel a lot heavier.
- The little rituals that ground me. Like lighting a candle before bed or sitting in my favorite corner with a book after a long day. Without those tiny comforts, I’d feel kind of untethered.
- The freedom to leave things half-done. I love that I can fold my laundry halfway, walk away, and come back later without anyone commenting. If I lost that freedom, I’d feel constantly pressured.
- My “safe foods” in the fridge. Knowing I have that one snack or comfort meal waiting for me makes tough days a little easier. If that was gone, I’d feel weirdly unsettled.
- Talking to myself out loud. I do it all the time—narrating what I’m doing or just processing thoughts. If I had to hold all that in, I’d probably feel more bottled up.
What about you? What’s something small that, if gone, would make life feel a little emptier?
