Starting from least to greatest, here we go:
#5 - Mathematics
Where would we be without mathematics? Probably an unindustrialized society. I love it, which means living without it would make me want to drive a spear through my heart. :)
#4 - Books
Without books, I would cease to learn. And without learning, I would drive myself crazy. And in driving myself crazy, I would cease to live.
#3 - Water
This is obvious, but very true. Drinking water is my life vitality. End of story.
#2 - My Mac
I would seriously become destitute without it. You have the internet, I-tunes, written school notes, written school papers, etc. all at your fingertips. Very useful machine.
#1 - Jesus Christ
Without the Life itself, we are in bad shape. The Life (Jesus, John 14:6) came to give us life. I could not live if it was not for Him.
Sola Deo Gloria!!!!

*dramatic gasp* You have a Mac too?! I adore mine... and I spend WAY too much time on here but... it's a Mac, what can you do? =D
As far as #1 is concerned.... uck. You have a point but... yeah. I was horribly angry when I found out I have to take another math class for my degree when I thought I had taken my last one. Sad day. :( And then I was just about murdered by the astrophysics problems I had to do in astronomy class. *shudder* I may never recover.
Quite honestly, my life would be better without mathematics. I mean, geometry is okay, but when we get into algebra? It's crazy and mind boggling. Well ok, for me that is lol :D

May,
Yes, I have a Mac too. Isn't it one of the most incredibly efficient machines ever made? I will never switch back to a PC. Never, because I love my Mac. I know for a fact you feel the same way, right. :)
Murdered. You were murdered. I would not be talking to you if that happened. ;) Anyways, I need to teach you how to appreciate math. You need to take Calculus. It is a beautiful cognition of being able to understand this vast realm as each theorem and formula builds upon each other. And, not only that, you reach the same answer in a variety of different ways. Mathematics is a beautiful art. It is like words. The beauty of words begins simply. As each word meaning categorizes itself within a certain simple category, you begin building vocabulary. And when you build vocabulary, you reach the monumental glory of the English language. The same is with Math. I posted about this some time ago, so you can read the post. Here is the link: http://awarriorsheartj.blogspot.com/2009/09/astounding-and-complex-design-of.html
Bethany,
Read the math portion of the response to May's comment that I made. You would be greatly encouraged by that post. :)
Excuse me, young man, but I said "almost murdered" not "murdered"! And, no, actually you can keep your deep appreciation for numbers. It's not that I despise math (at least the entry stuff [algebra and/or geometry] and finances [balancing the checkbook, etc.]) but I will leave the admiration of calculus, trig. and physics to people such as yourself. I'm not a huge fan of Isaac Newton or Hipparcus for those reasons though I will admit they were greatly used by God.
May,
Read the post though. You would be vastly amazed.
In Christ,
Joshua :)
