Bucket List…157 things to do before I die
This is a list I composed on my own. Things that I want to try before I die. . .
The point isn’t to accomplish everything on a list… the point is to live. I don’t just want to survive…. I want to enrich my life by challenging myself… intellectually and emotionally.
My Life Mission Statement: SEEK. SAIL. SOAR.
Seek your faith, your creator, the love of your life
Sail onto new lands, visit forien soil, and open your mind to life unlike your own. Understand others cultures through immersion. Don’t stay comfortable. You learn the most about yourself when you are outside of the walls of comfort.
Soar above what you believe you are capable. Make the best of who you are. Challenge yourself. Each day try not to be better than anyone other than yourself. Do not be petty. Try to live your life worthy of the calling you have been given. Be Humble. Be Gentle. Be Patient. Create Peace.
