What defines you?

I was just standing on a chair trying to close my window and then was looking down at a bird’s eye view of my room… and picking out the things that are ‘me’ in the room. Have you ever wondered if people would know you lived in your house if they were shown your bedroom/kitchen/living room…? I don’t know why but it’s something I think about sometimes. I’m pretty sure that even if the photos weren’t there that people would know i lived here… Here’s some purely material things that define me…

• My ever expanding music collection… I spend a ridiculous amount of money on music… I don’t even try to justify it anymore. Most recent purchases were bluetree and kimya dawson… Wonderfulness soundtrack to my life…
• My radio… cuz my world is never silent. I woke up at 8am yesterday having fallen asleep sometime after 3… and the radio was still on… My next radio shall have a sleep timer… My radio in Belfast has one but it’s a bit poo cuz it’s not DAB… so no bbc7 or world service and 5live is mw so horrible to listen to in bed.
• My books… not as many as i would like… can’t afford it but when I can I shall have a book lined study
• The random medical stuff- stethoscope, tendon hammer and usually a box of gloves and dissection kit but they’re in a locker in anatomy….
• My notebooks… esp my fav black fuzzy one for special stuff and my moleskines for journalling and random writings
• my new big cushion… shouldn’t strictly be in the list but i love it.. mmmmm… ditto the brown fluffy blanket….
• oil burner, incense, candles etc… i drive mum mental with them at home. My room wouldn’t smell right without them

This has turned into a rather random 1am post but

What in your room would people notice as ‘you’?

Aussi… just listening to bluetree… they have been absorbed into my brain at sm so i keep thinking ‘they sing this??’

‘Your love, your everlasting love transforms me. Your love, your everlasting love transforms me. It brings me to my knees again, it brings me to my knees again. In worship on my knees again.

Your grace, your unending grace it lifts me. Your grace, your unending grace it lifts me. It brings me to my knees again, it brings me to my knees again. In worship on my knees again.

Your blood, your unfailing blood it saves me. Your blood, your unfailing blood it saves me. It brings me to my knees again, it brings me to my knees again. In worship on my knees again.

Great is your name on all of the earth.’

on second thoughts- I think that’s what defines me.
