I’ve decided it’s time for me to get my list in writing. I turn 40 later this year and I figure that’s half of my life complete (based on U.S. census tables<\/a>), so it’s time to set some goals for the latter half of my life. I see and hear about things all the time that prompt me to say to myself, “I should do that before I die!” And then I tend to forget about it.<\/p>\n These are the big-ticket things I’d like to do one day. Most of it is traveling, but I’ve alway felt that there’s so much of the world to see and learn about.<\/p>\n No, I don’t have the money or time to do a lot of these things. But that’s what I have the rest of my life for, right? And it appears that much of it is visiting stuff.<\/p>\n Disclaimers about this list:<\/p>\n Leave a comment if you think there’s something else I should try, or if you have tips about something on the list, or if you want to share your own bucket list items!<\/p>\n I’ve decided it’s time for me to get my list in writing.
