    I don't have a list. What is up with that? I have always been the type of person to be content with what I have.

    I have always wanted to go to Hawaii though.

    Hmmm... I don't have much of a list either? I guess if I think about it they are more goals than anything.

    I would love to:
    -Raise a family with a great guy by my side
    -Become a nurse working with children (currently in the process!)
    -Go scuba diving in Australia
    -Go to Ireland
    -Do photography professionally, have my own studio

    AAaaaaand I can't think of anything else specifically. lol

    I saw "The Bucket List" on cable over the weekend and thought of this thread!
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Oh, I'm definitely content. But there are things that I'd like to try. I'm sure there are many that I'll never live to try. But I can wish, can't I??????

    I am with you. Checklist almost seem forced to me. Spending lots of time or energy on what I 'really want to do' instead of what I am actually doing in the here and now seems so misguided.

    I love what I do, both professionally and personally. Rather than wish for an extended vacation (something probably not in the cards), I would rather focus on saving more animals, educate more people on the inhumane treatment of animals, and spend normal, boring day to day time with my son. I am a simple person at heart.

    My bucket's got a hole in it, so it would be a waste of time and energy, putting anything in it.

    I'm with happylabs and Cataholic. Enjoy the here and now - make the most of it that you can - and quit wishing your life away on things that most likely will never come to be.

    Oh Wombat, you brought back a funny memory! I first heard that song on the Lawrence Welk Show, I was . . . I guess 8. Next day, Monday, I went to school, 3rd grade, and asked the teacher if I could sing a song for the class? "Yes," so I stood in front of the class and sang that! By the end, they were ALL singing with me.
