"I grabbed three things as I made my escape-"

What we carry can say a lot about us as people. It comes up time and again when discussing the island scenario (what would you take to survive), or what you would grab if your house was on fire. The same can be said about our characters. Weapons, means, mementos, memories... so many things to take and every item in question comes with assumptions made by the reader. My challenge is to write about the things someone carries. The circumstances and items are up to you. There doesn't even have to be three of them but I think three is a significant number. I'm not going to give any examples this time lest I inadvertently rob someone of their idea. As always, spelling, grammar, and punctuation matter. Good luck!
