My One Thing I Can't Imagine My Day Without

Imagine you wake up one day, but this time, you touch table, pocket, even under your pillow you can't find that one thing that always makes you happy. It might be anything but that particular you can't fins it. Silence will be everywhere. That moment alone can make you sad, because in today’s world, we do have one common thing that makes our day complete and enjoyable and without that one thing our day might feel incomplete.

For me, it's my mobile phone. This my smartphone has become my daily partner. From the alarm that wakes me up everyday, to the app which I use for my morning text, then to checking news updates, to replying work mails and other messages,everything is inside that phone.

Even simple things like calculator, torchlight, or reminder for meeting — it's the phone that handle them. If I never touch that phone in the morning, my day can feel somehow incomplete, like I never start my engine. Phone has turn my diary, my office, my entertainment, and my connection to the world everyday.

I remember one day that my uncle was at the hospital in another state. I couldn't travel to see him that time, but it was through phone video call I see his face, talk with him, and also encourage him. That moment really shows me that my phone is not just a gadget — it's a bridge which connect me to people even when the distance is far.

Another time was when my younger sister call me screaming with joy that she has gain admission into the university. The excitement which I heard through that call is still in my memory till today. Without phone, those moments would have pass by. Phone do always carry both joy and sorrow, it's through it that we share our lovely moments and laughter, tears, and even urgent updates when life shake.

If phone disappear for one week, my life won't really go well. Work will surely suffer me because I won't be able to reply to emails or attend our online meetings. Friends and family will be wondering why I am silent. Even small things like checking bank alert, paying bills, or browsing for information will surely becomes a very big problem. I will just feel cut off, almost isolated, like I live inside the bush. And my mood wilk change too — frustration, anxiety, and even boredom will creep in.

The absence of my phone will surely expose how deeply it has weave itself into my daily rhythm. I can even miss opportunities, because in today's life, one missed call can mean lost contract or delayed help.

So if am being asked asked “what will happen if the thing which complete your day disappear?” the answer is clear: life will still continue, but it won't be sweet the same way. For me, it's phone. For you, can be another thing — prayer, music, morning jog, or even gist with friend. But the truth is that, those small daily rituals and tools do give our life balance, connection, and meaning. When they vanish, it's then you will realize that ordinary thing can be extraordinary.
