Bucket List

[Greatshield17]

Due to what’s happened over the last year and a half, my bucket list has actually gotten rather small and simple; it consists of the following:

1. Get married.
2. Have children.
3. Expand Claritas beyond the small prayer group it is now. (Which I’m actually working on now, with my new involvement in Autism Advocacy.)
4. Be a holy Saint. (Which I’ve been doing everyday, and try to double my efforts as I continue day after day.)

What’s your bucket list like?

 

[Aspychata]

Excellent bucket list.

My bucket list can seem fragile at times:

Work on hapiness.
Work on self -acceptance.
Work on loving my good friends.
Smile just because.
Ignore those who try to pull me down.
Thanks to those who try for Sainthood.

!. Survive All these Variants
2. Help the children be as independent as possible
3. Move with family back to the State I was born, and where we married.
4. Survive More Variants.
5. Live Happily ever after.

Sounds like a good list, hope you’re managing with those goals.

Cool list!It's practical.

1) discern what I'm actually supposed to do in life
2) finish my bachelor's degrees
3) have productive life
4) find peace
5) die
6) become saint, but quietly

The what-I'd-personally-love-to-do bucket list:
1) get better at playing the organ
2) spend more time out-of-doors, less time worrying abt going out in public
3) write some more--novels, articles, essays, poems, letters
4) learn to ride horses, then take a horse & go on a long distance trip
5) restore antique car 1910-1955
6) delete social media & go under the radar for awhile to pretend it's 2004

I am at peace with a lot of things I know I likely will not do: I won't be able to learn how to fix radios, for example. I've gotten them running but I'm lousy at restoring them. I would like to be able to be 100% open with family. We're at about 90% but that 10% is some serious stuff. There's a bunch of other things but they will all depend on where life takes me.

Those are some good dreams!

1. Die, Elijah style would be amazing.



(Feel of been of good use to God and had enough of this nonsense, no kids)

 

[Wulven]

I don't really have one. No places to go. No plans for family later.
I enjoy the little things.
Warm blanket out of the dryer.
Hot water in the shower.
Beautiful sunny days.
A good cookie.
Peaceful house.
New songs that I like.

Probably not going to be a saint. But, a closeness with God. In a warm happy embrace. That. That would be nice.

Sounds like sanctity to me. You'll have fulfilled your end & purpose in life, achieved a union with God. A life come completely full circle.

I like the idea you have of the little things in life.

If someone's seeking to be "recognized" as a saint by the church or something then there's something very wrong with that person.

4. Die with my body well used up.

Hunter S Thompson "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside ina cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, Wow!"

 

[James45]

Live in a shack, near the sea, in the middle of nowhere, with no one nearby, paint, read and look. Slowly lose touch with reality and society. Then die, completely free of any stress.

Exactly! I was complemented on Monday when I drove two sessions on the raceway solo. My instructor was in the bleachers to watch my performance to critique when I returned to the paddock. He asked my age and told me other instructors were speculating and saying that it was great to see a senior come out to the track for the first time.

I want to hike the Pacific Crest trail.

I want to buy a big truck or van or some other roomy, gas guzzling beast of a vehicle.

I want to start an herb/kombucha/natural living/midwifery type company.

I want to wake up to somebody every day.
