My Bucket List – 50 things to do before I die is precious to me
Many, many years ago my best friend and I wrote our bucket lists. I have no idea where they are now but I know we have both achieved many things off those lists. Some 25 years later I know it is time to make my new list. I am older, wiser, I have lost those I love, but i still have many dreams.
My bucket list matters – 50 things to do before I die
Nevertheless I know my dreams are vital to keep alive. And there is much I want to achieve before I pass through this life. This list may change and it may grow but at the moments its a little list of things I would like to achieve ….wish me luck.
I hope to get started as soon as I finish writing.

Inspiration for my bucket list
“Another year is fast approaching. Go be that starving artist you’re afraid to be. Open up that journal and get poetic finally. Volunteer. Suck it up and travel. You were not born here to work and pay taxes. You were put here to be part of a vast organism to explore and create. Stop putting it off. The world has much more to offer than what’s on 15 televisions at TGI Fridays. Take pictures. Scare people. Shake up the scene. Be the change you want to see in the world.”
