Do you have a bucket list?

Would you share your list with me?

Is there something great you want to do...

Something grand you'd like to see?

Grab your list of great ta da's...step out of your comfort zone,

Keep a record of accomplishments regardless of their size,

You'll be amazed at how you've grown...

You'll see the world through new eyes!

Did you make a "ta da list" for your life...things to check off one by one?

Until your done?

Until you've learned so much, reached for the stars, gasped in wonder at a sight unseen?

Just what is your biggest dream?

Will you share that wish with me?

Recently, I had a fun conversation with a dear friend regarding some of the things we would like to do...our "bucket lists", if you will.   What fun it is to hear what others want to do...what plans, hopes, dreams, goals they have!  I was amazed to see that my friend and I had many of the same items on our lists!  I'm hoping we can check back...re-visit our lists eventually...finding that we've checked off many of the items with a big "TA DA"!!!  My list is rather long...so long that, at times, I believe if I want to get everything checked off, there won't be time to sleep. Well then...

I’ll sleep when I die                           

Time doesn’t stand still,
So why should I,
Got too much to do,
I’ll sleep when I die.


Gotta live, work & play,
Before the sun sets,
Gotta live for today,
Don’t want regrets.


Want to travel the world by air land and sea,
Read lots of books, lounge on the beach,
Ski the black diamond, fly an airplane,
Sail a catamaran in the south of Spain,


Learn a few new languages, write book or two,
Become the best gourmet cook you ever knew!
Learn to play the guitar, write a country song,
About a life well lived…Get the world to sing along…
My list is soooo long!


Yep, time doesn’t stand still,
So why should I,
Got so much to do,
I’ll sleep when I die.


Wanna dance like Ginger Rogers & Fred Astair,
Live every single day with out a care!
Laughin’, learnin’, breathin’ it all in,
Oh, how I wish this was just the beginnin’!


Hey maybe I’ll invent a way,
To make time slow down and lengthen the day,
‘Cuz time goes too fast to live, work AND play!


Then if I sleep till noon,
There’ll still be time,
And I won’t feel as if sleep is a crime.


But for now…
Time won’t stand still,
So why should I,
There’s too much to do, I’ll sleep when I die!

:)  Did I mention that I want to learn Italian?!   :)

I'd love to visit Tuscany!

Do you have a "TA DA" list?

If you do...

Just what is your biggest dream?

Will you share that wish with me?
