Soul Creative Question Of The Day #1
9/10 times we as creatives are use the internet to take ideas rather than give them.
After asking that storefront question yesterday, you guys are overflowing with ideas.
So let’s continue developing our creativity with simple questions with simple or not so simple answers…
Here is today’s slow Saturday Soul Creative Question Of The Day…
The Most Complicated Thing You Own Is…
I know…It’s not really a question. But you get it…
RAIN IT DOWN
See below:

I’d say my blackberry, but it’s like an extension of my arm at this point…but was tricky when I first got it!
POD X3 Live and Variax guitar.
my heart….does that count?
you win. awesome
A circular saw given to me as a xmas gift. I don’t even know how to put it together, more less use it.
My wife.
i was gonna say something along those lines…but didn’t wanna open that can
Not touching that one
If there is any ownership in marriage and children, that is wonderfully complicated. If you mean an object that was purchased for money it would be my car. So long as all she needs is gas and a sparkle wash we’re good, everything else is far too complicated for me.
I would have to agree with Ryan and Christie: the most “wonderfully complicated” in my life is my wife and daughter, but oh, how I love them.
Probably my ipod touch
Not that I ‘own’ it, but it has been charged to me: the ministry I lead. It’s full of complicated and deep human beings, myself included!
A burden for others.
I struggle with ensuring my joy and my relationship with God does not depend on the state of my ministry. I often become so infatuated with the well-being of my brothers and sisters, i forget that i need to be poured into by my Best Friend and Father if i ever want to pour out, effectively.
my religion…oh, yeah, and it’s worthless; faith sure seems a lot more simple.
My mind. Sometimes I can’t follow my own trains of thought.
I’m with you. Everything else I can figure out. LOL!
My mountain bike.
my dream
A plan to find an affordable custom page for a non-profit event… well, I know it’s not tangible, but we need a new web page with a good registration form to make our lives easier.
I’d have to second the “my heart” response.
Free will
the theological question would be do you actually own that…
Or do we actually own anything?
kids. I have these kids and they are so freakin complicated… it’s unbelievable.
Oh, and the timer on my coffeemaker also leaves me baffled. So there’s that.
The relationships I have with God and those around me.
Debt. My hands are so bound right now ’cause I was so stupid.
Gotta go with me!
Been on this journey with myself for a fair few years now, and I’m still none the wiser!
I’d say life in general. It seems way more complicated than it was ever intended to be…echoes from the Garden perhaps?
Everything…at least that is what it feels like.
A checkbook/banking account.
My home…I don’t really own it, we rent an apartment…but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to run it well, how to be a “homemaker.”
Becky…
I have the same problem. But I’ll bet you run your home a lot better than you think you do…
My cynicism….dangit.
My marriage.
My heart. easily. don’t get that thing. i’m pretty jacked-up
My heart’s OK I think, fairly straightforward. But when my brain starts to disagree with it, or I try and intellectualise it…see, there it goes again. Oh to look at life more simply.
I’m the same way. There *are* times when I have to say “what I think has to override what I feel”, such as when I’m in a depression… the truth of God’s Word overrides my feelings. But when the feelings are really, really good… like you, my mind tries to convince myself otherwise. (similar to what you were saying, but not exactly the same.
)
Totally my heart — or maybe that heart/head connection thing a ma bob.. like Paul said.
If you want to talk technology, right now it’s either our tv with all the programable buttons etc.. or our sound board that I’m trying to learn how to operate.
Not sure if this fits or not, all of my user-name’s and passwords for the 15+ accounts I have! Yikes.
As somebody who would love to be a minimalist and is trying to get there, I would like to say a bicycle…or something like that. But I must say my Jeep, or really any vehicle I’ve owned. I’m a DIY’er when it comes to that stuff, but automobiles and I have a terribly complicated relationship.
I’m surprised I’m the first one to say this, but I’m gonna go with my Bible. That’s one intricate book.
haha… you win!
my time machine.
WIN!
my student loans
mmm… agreed.
The responsibility of raising my 17-year-old son. I most certainly believe in the “sins of the father” now.
the balance between ministry and family.
Sewing machine. And i do use it…. almost everyday. I’m 23 and i quilt. it’s my art
My kids. Nevermind. I don’t own them. They are definitely complicated though!
My on-and-off, here-one-hour-gone-the-next-if-it’s-that-type-of-season depression. :-/
Or… The Turabian Manual of Style. *That* is complicated!!!
Hammond C3 and Leslie 122 Cabinet. All those tubes and wires and motors and tone wheels and the smell of 50 year old dust. Sometimes I think it owns me.
…my heart.
