If you had to flee from your home, and you had to carry your belongings on your back, what would you take with you? Why?

I would take with me notebooks and pens. Because I would find that a comfort and I am addicted to have notebooks with me even when I don't have to flee))
I would take my mp3 and batteries. I would find life without music such a dread))) At least I would have the possibility to play a little music once in awhile.
The Lord of the Rings - to this day the most influential book)) Maybe A New Earth as well, to help me cope with whatever reason I had to flee.
I would probably also grab my camera and then charger, just because it would be natural for me.
And I would probably also grab some clothes, warm clothes, and extra shift of underwear and socks.
And I would grab my cat and stuff him into his carrier. And thus also take some food for him:)
