My Bucket List

I am in LOVE with the thought of living life... I think there is so much to explore and although at times I can be hesitant, I can see the greater good in attempting to experience everything rather than experiencing nothing.

I love trying new things-- whether it be something as grand as a physical activity or something as simple as taking a different route to work. I think the element of surprise is what fuels me the most.

"I think life is all about spontaneity- attempt to never live the same day twice." I know she probably didn't make it up, but I got this line from Jennifer Lopez in the hit movie "Monster-In-Law." This is the answer she gives when asked why does she have so many professions. She was a dog walker, seamstress, hostess and an array of other things. In addition to taking so many risks, in the movie she finds love while doing one of her many temp jobs. I can only hope to try as many things as she has-- oh and find love too, but of courseee that's a totally different blog post LOL.

Additionally, trying out new stuff will help you determine things ranging from what you could probably stand to live without to the things you could potentially love. And that alone is absolutely beautiful. You just never know what your heart may have a penchant for until you try it.

Now the stuff on my list ranges from extremely practical to very adventurous. I didn't make a bucket list of tasks that are impossible (I like to think things are nearly impossible hence the small font LOL)-- but rather feats that I know are very attainable for *ME*-- I am not living my life by this list, but I think writing them down will help to get tasks crossed off that much quicker.

I am in no rush to complete my entire list either, however, I do need to get rid of items, otherwise, with time, I just keep adding LOL. However, some things have no end date. The best part of sharing my list is because I can always come back and update you all with what I've done or what I've added.

Check out what I have so far--my things are in no particular order or priority... I hope my list influences you to start one of your very own :-)

Ttfn... ta ta for now
