Bucket Lists: What's on Yours?

Climbing a mountain. Hangliding. Traveling to China. What are the items on your bucket lists, the lists of things you want to do before you kick the bucket? Or have you not even thought about it? And is it more interesting to learn about others' lists than to make your own? Maggie Mason of Mighty Girl asks, "What's on your bucket list?"

I do have a bucket list of sorts, although it's still kind of short and still evolving. You can see the first version here: http://www.strocel.com/mondo-beyondo/ I will say that even giving myself permission to put a voice to my dreams was huge and life-changing. It has brought up things that I'd forgotten about for a really long time. I started this exercise about 6 months ago, and in that time I feel like I have developed a newfound freedom and learned who I really am. It is an amazing gift, and for me its worth every little bit of vulnerability that I felt in writing it.

Interesting timing for this subject. I just spent two weeks in the hospital and a found myself questioning my mortality and the future of my children. I though scary things and practical things, got mad at myself for not having a will or a plan to keep my daughters from becoming orphans etc... But in my fear and fever induced delirium, I mostly stressed out about the huge pile of dirty laundry I had had put off washing all week, and felt horrified knowing that a friend or neighbour was doing it for me. Bless her heart. My goal this week...my list. http://www.theladyslounge.com

Okay, I wrote my comment before watching the whole video. I want to do a full turn in a kayak too! I've only done a wet exit. Not convenient, really. Also, Alice, I just want to do one pull-up. Why can't I do even one?! Aim low, Alice. That's the secret of life. Aim low and then keep adding goals. My list was pretty easy to make but I included simple things, too, so I could cross them off with a feeling of wha-ha! Honestly, I do have larger goals I could put on there, more places I want to see. But again, I think it's good to start at a more manageable level and then keep dreaming from there.

I made a life list about that time, too. I called mine Things I Want to Do Before I'm Dead/Crazy/Quadriplegic but Typepad wouldn't let me keep the title so long. I have about 100 things on mine but I'm not going to limit it to that. I just keep adding as I want. Mine is different from yours, probably, Maggie because it includes things like "Never go to Disneyland/World"-- something that will take my whole life. Easy though. :-) My list is here: http://www.becomingsomething.com/ Happy to have crossed off visiting London but didn't run into Jude Law or make him fall in love with me. YET.
