The most special object for me is the television in my house. It is a 48-inch, flat-screen, and it has a surround-sound system that allows for maximum audio experience. This television is very important in my daily life, not only because it provides me entertainment, but also because it allows me to escape from my extensively busy life. I can relax and be happy as a result of that TV, so it provides me great comfort as I desire to escape from the formalities of daily life. I feel very happy that it is there for me to easily turn on, and it even has a record feature so I can record my favorite shows, games, and programs. It really gives me as much satisfaction as any physical object could, and I am thankful it is there for me to use.
If I lost this item, I would feel the pressures of daily life more and more, and I would probably be overwhelmed emotionally by the physically and mentally tolling effects of school and self-actualization. I would no longer have an outlet to relax and not think about my everlasting duties as a son, student, athlete, and college-aspiring senior. A significant event that would happen if I lost this TV would probably be an increased interest in studying, keeping track of events in the world, and I would probably try to self-transcend into the community to try to find service projects in which I could partake.
If I were to lose this TV, I would probably end up finding satisfaction in a different object or activity, such as becoming more attached to sports, service, religion, politics, or independent learning. I would ultimately feel the satisfaction I had received from the TV from another source, and I might actually receive more satisfaction than I had planned. However, every time I would be satisfied, I would be reminded of the TV I had lost, but I would feel gratification from the new things I had explored and involved myself in.
TV?
