Do you have a ‘Bucket List’?
I’m asking this because I found mine while cleaning out the garage. It was written somewhere around my senior year in high school. I have no idea when I last saw it. A lot of things were checked off but I haven’t seen it for a long, long time.
What I found interesting was not what I had or had not accomplished (although I was able to update it with several things I’d done since I’d last seen it) The thing I really found interesting was what I considered noteworthy to spend my time and energy on in my future.
Yes, I did go to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade (Boy, talk about a crowd of people!)
Yes, I have been to the Grand Canyon. (Indescribable)
No, I haven’t made it to Mardi Gras yet.
Yes, I have read War and Peace. (Loooong)
No, I’ve never made it to the Olympic Games
No, I’ve never been in Times Square on New Year’s Eve (And that’s probably a good thing)
Some of the items were a bit surprising. “To go camping in Canada.” Now, I’ve been to Canada several times and loved every minute of it, but camping??? Like in a tent and sleeping on the ground??? I don’t think so. I love nature but at night I need a hotel with cable and a hot shower.
I’m thinking that it’s probably time to revise my list. Update it with things that mean more to me now, but ya know…I still want to see the Hoover Dam.
So, do you have a ‘Bucket List’? Did you write it recently or years ago? Do you still want to accomplish what you listed? Let me know what’s important to you.
