What’s Your BUCKET LIST? Here’s MINE!

1. Learn to let go of the pain
2. Have a real positive impact on someones life
3. Sell everything I own, buy a boat and sail around the world before I'm 45yrs old. That gives me 7 years!
4. Dance in the rain in Rome
5. Somehow know without a doubt that I'm loved


I've done all my other Bucket List things in the last 5 years this is all I have left. I have done some amazing things.

Starred and Flagged!!

Female
26
Life Partner
Straight
American
Lutheran/Baptist... but have other belifs as well... but the main constant is there is a God/Higher Power and Spirits.


My Bucket list...

1. To visit the UK, Wales, Scotland and Finland with my family.
2. Meet Paul McCartney
3. Swim with Dolphins
4. Confirmation of an alien species/humanoid life out there
5. To say I'm sorry to anyone I hurt in my life.
6. Stay in a renovated castle with friends and family.
7. Win the lottery and give the money to a local shelter or children's program.
8. To get married to my SO and not have to worry about SSI/DI crap.(We get married he loses his Disablity Benefits and he needs that more than I need to be married. Sides, we already said vows to each other between us and God, so we don't need a state certificate showing us were married... it'd just be fun to do. That and easier to say he's my husband instead of partner and confuse people, lol.

You know, that about covers it. Pretty much stuff that will never happen, but as long as I live my life, be happy, and have my family around me I'm all good.

Excellent thread Dave, by JOVE you've done it again!

male -50

I had a bucket list before I knew about the term "bucket list". It got pared down and restocked over time. I'm a very fortunate person (given that I survived all the previous incarnations of the list!)

1. Build a 30-foot (legal height limit here) rock and concrete tower on the beach for taking green flash photos and general introspection.

2. I've been working on a paper for more than 15 years, attempting to unify the constants "c" and "g"..... I'd like to find the proofs to substantiate that, if it can be done.

3. Build a brownian motion particle generator that put out more than fractions of an amp.

4. I want to teach again. Agriculture and farming, survival systems.

5. Orbit the Earth.

6. Interact in a balanced manner with an extraterrestrial (unless they're from HERE, in which case...... interact with THEM)

7. Swim with a dolphin or two. There was a wild dolphin -- Spot -- who was here for the better part of two years. He was thought to have come in here after a severe hurricane. I tried to find him, tried to get aboard dive boats, anything for the experience. Never happened.

8. Climb Dixon's Wall in Cayman Brac. ...... and live.

9. Have my Bride and I live long enough to be at that wonderful age when you can get away with ANYTHING (althought I suspect that even then, shelling the supply barge with a coconut trebuchet will still be off-limits )

Following consensus format;
Male
54
Highly spiritual but not at all religious. (know too much)
Married since 80
Independent (pro-everyone)

First and foremost. Wake the hell up!
If I awaken I can enjoy anything I do and then go with grace.

In the long list I've had forever in any case,

* See the major mountain ranges of the world and hike them.

* See major deserts of the planet and hike them.

* Meet as many people as I can from aboriginal to tribal and simple cultures
see and learn from their beauty.

* Visit the ruins of the earliest civilizations, Mesoamerican, Asian, African, etc.

* See Earth from orbit.

* See Moon from Moon.

* See Mars from Mars.

* See another civilized world.

* See another dimension.

* About a million more lifetimes of experience.

* Walk out of the world into the next, and take all my loved family and friends.

Oh, and learn how to count from 1 to 10. (sry)


OK, big and very strange bucket, but if you don't ask......
