The Bucket List
When I finished watching “The Bucket List”. It made me wonder what I would have on my bucket list. It made me think that I would love to have my kids write a bucket list and see how it changes as they grow.
I know that a bucket list should be specific. This is a little general, but it will serve its purpose. I am still pretty young-48 years old, and I have spent most of my life working hard to earn money and raise kids (and still am doing both). There is a lot I want to do.
FAMILY
- See my kids and their families do some of the things on their bucket lists
- Document and organize photos, events, and family history to pass on to future generations.
- Have “a memory of a life time” with as many family members and friends as possible
- Begin family reunions
- Have 5 family vacations
GOD
- Share God in a way that makes Him “real”
- Make the most of opportunities to share how God makes a difference in my life
- Write something memorable about my life and my faith that will inspire others and make a difference
WORK
- Advance at a paid job to the point I can have one job
- Create passive income
- Travel, write, and photograph
- Teach others to be financially free
FINANCIAL
- Have financial freedom
- Make money traveling, writing, and photographing
- Have abundance to give to those in need and to help others become free
MISC
- Travel for a year
- Go to Australia
- Go to Alaska
- Decorate a home the way I want
- Develop some self-sufficiency
LOVE
- Experience lasting love
- Discover my match
- Fall in love with someone who falls in love with me
- Experience love that is “easy”
WRITING/PHOTOGRAPHY
- Write books
- Sell my prints on a regular basis
- Write a cook book and dedicate it to my grandma
- Inspire others to use their talents
When I’m gone, I want people to say the following about me and truly mean it:
- Always said how she felt
- Was honest and upfront
- Loved no matter what
- Loved unconditionally
- Saw the best everyone could be
- Smiled and laughed
- Was the best friend
- Knew God’s power
- Gave to others
- Made a difference
- Found the good in all situtions
What I really want people to remember when they think about me, is that I was happy.
